A low total for an NHL game because St. Louis comes in number one in the NHL in goals allowed. However, the Blues are winding down a long road trip, their seventh in final game away from home. And they've looked tired on defense, giving up five goals the last two games (both losses), part of a 1-4 run. They also gave up four at Chicago during this trip, another loss. Phoenix has plenty of offensive punch and motivation, with the Coyotes the seventh in the Western Conference. The offense has scored three goals in the each of the last four games and 25 goals in the last eight games. The defense, though, has been a concern giving up 25 goals the last seven games, part of a 4-1-2 run OVER the total. And when these teams meet the OVER is 4-1-3 in the last eight meetings. Play St. Louis/Phoenix OVER the total.
