St. Louis at Los Angeles

The Blues lost a heart breaker in OT to the Sharks in their team opener. However, the Blues committed eight minor penalties and had a 35-34 edge in shots on goal! They looked solid. Los Angeles opened up against the Ducks last night and lost. Cloutier looked suspect in that game. Anze Kopitar, a 19-year-old rookie from Sweden and taken 11th overall by the Kings in the 2005 NHL entry draft played well and scored a goal to tie up the game. I like the Blues in this one. Good price on the line (+147) and if they Blues stay out of the box they have a great shot to upset.
