Hockey Club vs. Blues Betting Prediction

The Blues aim to break a three-game losing streak and solidify their playoff berth. Despite recent struggles, they have been strong at home and possess a potent offense. Utah, already eliminated from playoff contention, will look to play spoiler. Their defense and goaltending have been reliable, but offensive inconsistencies have plagued them throughout the season. ​

Ultimately, I expect the Blues to break this game open and secure their playoff spot.

Hockey Club vs. Blues Prediction: ST. LOUIS BLUES -165
