Odds

Both of these teams are listed as -110 ML odds with a total for this game set at 6 goals.

Injuries

For the Blues, Jake Neighbours is still out indefinitely with an upper body injury while San Jose has Evgeny Svechnikov and Kevin Labanc are both questionable for this game for the Sharks.

Matchup History

St. Louis’ 5-3 win over the Sharks back on November 10th, 2022, made it six straight wins for the Blues in this head-to-head matchup.

Trends

St. Louis is 1-5 in their last 6 games against the Pacific division and 0-6 in their last 6 games overall while the under is 7-1-4 in their last 12 games played on 1 days rest. San Jose is 6-23 in their last 29 games against a team with a losing record and 21-57 in their last 78 games overall while the over is 23-6-1 in their last 30 games against the Western Conference.

Pick

I’m backing the Blues here. I’ve gone against my own rule where I say to keep fading the Blues until they give us a reason not to, but the reality is that they’re the far better team compared to a Sharks team that’s won just 6 times on home ice all season. I think the Blues snag the win here to snap the skid so I’ll lay the juice with the Blues here.
