Two teams who are already very familiar with each other get to spend another romantic weekend with each other when the Blues visit the Coyotes.
The teams have already played the last four games against each other in St. Louis, with the Coyotes taking the last three. They now play three at the Gila River Arena in the next four nights.
St. Louis Blues
The Blues would probably like to see a new team. After getting a 4-3 win on February 2nd, the only groundhog day St. Louis has experienced was loss after loss after loss.
The unique scheduling comes about because of COVID cancellations and rearrangements. The worst thing about the Blues three game losing streak is that they’ve been favored in each, significantly too as -140 or better.
Make no mistake, the Blues are still a very solid team and their 7-4-2 record to go along with 16 points is still good enough for 2nd place in the West behind Vegas.
Arizona has scored at least three goals in all four of the recent games in this series, so the Blues aren’t getting the goaltending they’d like. Jordan Binnington has a sub .900 save percentage the last two.
Arizona Coyotes
If Arizona can go 3-1 in St. Louis in four games as an underdog, you’d think they have an advantage with this 3-game home stand.
The Coyotes like where their offense is at after tallying 3+ in all four games vs. St. Louis. That’s saying something for a team that is just 21st in scoring and 26th in shots on goal.
Jakob Chychrun has 4 points the last two games, Christian Dvorak has netted 4 scores vs. the Blues, and Conor Garland has put up 6 points in this four game mini-series. Arizona has balanced contributions lately.
Darcy Kuemper has had some interesting outings over the 4-games with St. Louis, giving up 4 goals in the February 2nd loss, holding the Blues to one score on the 6th, and allowing 3 but on 43 shots on the 8th.
