Blues hope to rebound on both ends of the ice
The Blues are looking to rebound after an opening night where they were shut out on their home ice. That loss halted a 15-game home winning streak, including the playoffs. The hope is that Robert Thomas and Jordan Kyrou step up as the two skaters scored 57 goals and 94 assists last season, but were a non-factor in the season opener.
The offense looks to rebound, and the defense also needs a bounce back after allowing five goals in the recent loss. Justin Faulk and Cam Fowler anchored the top pair but the rest of the unit struggled, allowing opponents to find open shots on the net at will. Additionally, goaltender Jordan Binnington looks to rebound after allowing five goals on 21 shots.

Calgary looks for offense to continue playing well
The Flames are off to a rocky start but their offense has been a bright spot, scoring five goals in two games with four in the opening night win. Conor Zary, Morgan Frost, and Blake Coleman have scored three goals, but the rest of the offense has also stepped up. Matvei Gridin, Joel Farabee, and Matthew Coranato have combined for a goal and two assists while Nazem Kadri, Yegor Sharangovich, and Adam Klapka have an assist apiece.
The offense has been great but the defense has struggled, allowing eight goals through two games. Rasmus Andersson and Kevin Bahl have led the top two pairings but the rest of the unit has struggled, allowing opponents to carry the puck into the offensive zone while finding open shots on the net. Additionally, goaltender Dustin Wolf has struggled early on, allowing eight goals on 61 shots in two games. Wolf was 29-16-8 last season with a 2.64 GAA last season.
Blues vs Flames Pick
Money Line Pick for Blues vs. Flames
- Flames (+105) (4 units)
The Blues are looking to bounce back from a rough loss, but the Flames are looking to step up on their home ice and take over this one. The Flames should create plenty of scoring chances while Nazem Kadri, Blake Coleman, and the rest of the forward unit control the puck in the offensive zone, while creating open shots with quick passes. The Flames should limit a Blues team that was just shut down with Rasmus Andersson, Kevin Bahl, and the rest of the defensive unit creating turnovers in the defensive zone while limiting shots on the net, allowing goaltender Dustin Wolf to step up and make plenty of big saves. The Flames should win the game with a strong performance on their home ice.
Take the Flames money line as home Underdogs.
Over/Under Pick For Blues vs Flames
- Over 5.5 (5 Units)
Both defenses have struggled to start this season, and this game looks to be a high-scoring one from the opening puck drop. The Blues should create plenty of scoring chances against the Flames, who have allowed eight goals through two games, with Robert Thomas, Jordan Kyrou, and the rest of the forward unit carrying the puck into the offensive zone while creating open shots with quick passes. The Flames, who scored four goals on opening night, should run up the score against a Blues defense that allowed five goals in their latest game with Nazem Kadri, Blake Coleman, Conor Zary, and the rest of the forward unit establishing a strong offensive zone presence while creating open shots with effective puck movement to overwhelm the Blues defense. The Over should cover in a high-scoring game with both offenses stepping up.
Take the Over on 5.5 goals.
