Jordan Kroyu has been the top player for the Blues scoring 22 goals and adding 40 more assists. Vladimir Tarasenko is also having a big season scoring 23 goals and adding 35 more assists. In this game if the defense is good, they will have a strong shot to come away with the victory.
Calgary Flames
On the other side of this matchup is the Calgary Flames who sit with a 40-18-9 record overall and they have gone 21-7-7 at home. The Flames have a good season but they are coming off a bad loss in their last game. The offense only scored two goals against the Los Angeles Kings and that led to a loss in a shootout.

The offense wasn’t great in the last game against the Kings though, and they are going to need to be better on that side of the ball in this one.
The top player this season has been Johnny Gaudreau and he has scored 31 goals and added another 30 assists. There are three different players that have at least 68 points but overall this is a very balanced team.
