Like last night, we have a good historical matchup here as the Avs are 26-10 vs. St. Louis including 4-0 over the past three seasons. Their offense is on fire (4.6 goals per game over their last five). Against this porous Blues defense (3.6 allowed per game), the Avs should score early and often. And,a veraging just 2.5 per game themselves, St. Louis will struggle to keep up. St. Louis is 3-13 the past two seasons as a home underdog of +100 to +150 and 1-13 after allowing 3+ goals for five straight games. Colorado is 18-2 vs. teams that are outscored by 0.3+ goals per game over the past two seasons. Another easy one for the Avs here, at a good price.
