Calgary Flames vs St Louis Prediction

This game is going to be lower-scoring. The Flames offense is averaging only 2.67 goals per game and on tired legs, the offense is going to be even better. The Blues are averaging 2.81 goals per game and they are going to really struggle to get any sort of offense going here. Even against tired legs, they aren’t going to have many quality scoring chances and this game is going to end up staying under the total. Back the under to cash.
