Bet Tonight’s Blues vs. Oilers Game
St. Louis was blown out 7-4 by Calgary in its last game but the Blues were also coming off a stretch in which they played (and beat) Minnesota, Chicago, Dallas and Anaheim. That’s four wins over postseason contenders, including a matchup against their biggest rivals, the Blackhawks.
In other words, the Flames provided the perfect letdown opponent for the Blues.
