Both teams played last night and Minnesota went into overtime before going down 6-5 to Buffalo. It was a bad night for Marc-Andre Fleury, allowing all six goals, and he stepped away from the team after the loss for personal reasons. Filip Gustavsson is likely in net for the Wild tonight, however it's possible Gustavsson will give way to Zane McIntyre as he has been sick the last few days and didn't dress for Saturday's game. It would be the first appearance in an NHL game for McIntyre since he played eight games for Boston in the 2016-17 season. Thomas Greiss is expected for St. Louis and the Blues are looking to avenge a 5-2 loss in the first meeting this season on Dec. 31, and they had won seven of the previous nine meetings. St. Louis has won five of six playing on no rest and the Blues have won six of their past eight road games. Play the Blues.
