This is a rematch of the Stanley Cup Finals. Defending champion St. Louis is playing great and when they were last in Boston they won Game 7 to take the title, 4-1. St. Louis has great depth, plays the physical game, has a winning road record along with a top 10 power play (25.8%). The Blues are on a 42-27 run against winning teams, including 18-10 versus teams that outscore their opponents by 0.5+ goals per game. Boston is without center David Krejci (upper body injury) and St. Louis is 58-38 against teams that average 29.5+ shots on goal. Play the Blues.
