Blues vs. Senators Prediction
I’m on the Blues here. I get why Ottawa could be favored being at home, but realistically, the Senators have had some major defensive and goaltending issues in recent games. St. Louis has been inconsistent in their own right, but I think that they can get back on track here with a win to build some momentum. Give me the Blues.
