Blues vs. Senators Pick
Blues vs. Senators Moneyline Pick
- Senators -150 (4 units)
Both teams have had their issues of late, with the Blues dropping four of their previous six games, while the Senators have fallen in three of their last four. With that said, Ottawa is starting to get some pieces back in the lineup, while the Blues have seen a few contributors fall by the wayside. St. Louis has struggled offensively all season long and they are a pedestrian 4-6-3 on the road. Seeing how the Blues have had issues and the fact that they are missing Snuggerud, coupled with Binnington’s less-than-inspiring play between the pipes, you have to fade the visitors here. Look for Ottawa to prevail on home ice in this contest.
Blues vs. Senators Over/Under Pick
- Under 5.5 (4 units)
St. Louis has seen the under post a 15-13 mark in their 28 games in relation to the total this season.
