Game Preview
A playoff challenge isn’t out of reach for either the St. Louis Blues or Calgary Flames at this late stage of the season, but both will need a red-hot run of form to enhance their faint hopes.
The Flames will have the home ice advantage on Wednesday, as they bid to snap a two-game losing run. Calgary have gone 26-34-7 in the NHL this season, scoring a Pacific Division-low of 167 goals.
Their record over their last ten dampens expectations, with the Flames winning just twice and suffering seven defeats in regulation. They were easily beaten earlier this week after falling to a 5-2 road loss against the Detroit Red Wings.
Interestingly, the St. Louis Blues are showing signs of fight at this stage of the season, and a win this week could see them move up a place in the Central Division. The Blues have shown great form over their last ten, winning on seven occasions.
However, they will need to pick themselves up following a narrow defeat against the Winnipeg Jets earlier this week. It could be worth noting that two of the last three wins for the Blues have been achieved in overtime.
Calgary Flames vs. St. Louis Blues Picks
The Flames have struggled for wins in their last ten, meaning that the more consistent Blues look like the standout betting angle in the NHL.
