Blues Return Home
The St. Louis Blues are back home this afternoon to start a three-game homestand against the Ottawa Senators.
The Blues just wrapped up a 1-1-3 road trip and return to Enterprise Center where they are 3-5-4 this season.
Another 3-2 Final Incoming?
The Blues’ scoring issues continue, as they just simply aren’t putting the biscuit in the basket often enough to win games on a consistent basis. Each of their four losses on the road trip came via the same 3-2 scoreline. The Blues have now scored more than 3 goals just once in their last 16 games.
And if the game goes to overtime, you may as well get your finger on the button to live bet Ottawa, as the Blues are now 0-7 in OT this season.
Tkachuk Back For Ottawa
The Senators will get a big boost this afternoon with the return of Brady Tkachuk to the lineup. The St. Louisan has missed the last 20 games with a thumb injury, but the Sens were able to not only survive but thrive with a record of 11-5-4 during Tkachuk’s absence.
This is the fifth of a seven-game road trip for Ottawa that has seen the Senators go 3-1 so far.
My Lean
The under just keeps on cashing in Blues games, and I think it’s the right angle once again in this one. Under 5.5 goals has come through in 10 of their 13 games this month.
And Ottawa is not the team the Blues want to be facing right now with their current goal-scoring struggles. The Senators have gone 10 straight games allowing 3 goals or fewer, and under 5.5 has cashed in 7 of those contests.
