NHL FREE PICK: Take Winnipeg. According to latest NHL trends, the Blues are 1-5 in their last six road games and 3-7 in their lat 10 games in the third game of a 3-in-4 situation. Ken Hitchcock’s squad is coming off an emotional, hard-fought victory over the Blackhawks last night in Chicago and now have to turn around and play a Winnipeg team that is clearly a downgrade in talent. Look for a sore, road-weary Blues squad to be caught looking ahead to a long break (they won’t play again until next Friday) when they play the Jets tonight.
