Totals don't get any lower than this. We have two very solid defensive teams here with Columbus allowing just 1.9 goals per game and St. Louis allowing 2.2. However, the Blues defense has showed signs of easing up. After allowing just 1 goal per game in their first three, they have allowed 2.6 per game since. Columbus has scored 3.4 per game over their last five and 10 goals in their two division games thus far. So, we expect the Blue Jackets to find the goal 3-4 times here. St. Louis is 28-19 OVER following a loss the past two seasons including 14-5 OVER on the road following a 1-goal loss. We like this one to get to 6+ with a very low chance of staying below 5.
