Colorado has won four in row (three on the road) and it's no secret how they are doing it: De-Fense! They've allowed 5 goals total during this four-game win streak. They come off a 4-0 victory at the Blackhawks as Avs’ goalie Semyon Varlamov got his second shutout of the season with 27 saves. They are on a 4-1 run UNDER the total and while it's the second of a back-to-back spot, Colorado usually slows the pace down as the UNDER is 4-1 in the Avalanche's last five games when playing on no rest. They face a strong defensive team with St. Louis, third in the NHL in goals allowed at just 2.1 per game. The UNDER is 15-6-6 in the Blues’ last 27 against the Western Conference and 11-2-3 UNDER the total in their last 16 vs. a team with a winning record. When these teams meet in St. Louis the UNDER is 9-4 in the last 13 meetings here. Play the UNDER.
