St. Louis at Calgary

img9:30 PM Eastern

Calgary is the NHL's lowest-scoring team, averaging just 2.5 goals per game. The Flames are also second-to-last in power-play goals, failing to score with a man advantage in nine of their last 11 games. Calgary must play well on defense to have a chance, but the Flames have permitted an average of 4.6 goals per game during their last eight outings. It has led to a 2-8 record in their past 10 games, and players are already booking April tee times. St. Louis, on the other hand, has been one of the hotter teams following the Olympic break, going 7-3. The Blues are desperate to stay in the wild-card race, and cannot afford an off night here against this beatable opponent. Calgary just finished a five-game road trip that concluded with a 5-2 loss to the Red Wings this past Monday. It's their first home game in 11 days, and also the team's sixth game in 10 days. Lay 1.5 goals with the Blues on the puckline.
