BETTING TRENDS
St. Louis are 5-1 SU in their last 6 games.
St. Louis are 5-2 SU in their last 7 games on the road.
Chicago are 4-11 SU in their last 15 games.
Chicago are 1-7 SU in their last 8 games at home.
Prediction
Don't get confused if the Blackhawks just scored 8 goals in the last game it was because of a complete lack of defense from the Devils. The Blues are allowing 2.7 goals in their last 10 games and are 6-1 in their last 7 games against Chicago. I'm not expecting a blowout on this one but the Blues should get the win for sure.
