The Avs have scored 14 goals in their last three games and are averaging 4.1 over their last nine games. Their defense has kept them from winning as many games as they should with that kind of offense but tonight St. Louis comes to town. The Blues are just what Colorado needs - a low scoring team. St. Louis is 4-13 on the road because they average 2.1 goals per game on offense. They also give up 3.5 which has Colorado players licking their chops. Colorado is 15-4-4 vs. St. Louis here in Denver and 5-1 overall the past three seasons. Yes, Colorado is off a game in which they surrendered 5 goals, but St. Louis can't score like that and the Avs are 7-1 this season off a bad defensive performance like that. Colorado here.
