St. Louis is a strong all-around team, even on the road. St. Louis is #5 in the NHL in goals scored, #8 in goals allowed and #4 on the power play. The Blues are 9-2 on the road. St. Louis hasn't played since Sunday, a plus as they just brought in veteran forward Olli Jokinen and defensemen Zbynek Michalek and Robert Bortuzzo in trades to improve talent and depth. The Blues are 56-21 against the Eastern Conference and face a weak all around Philadelphia squad, one ranked #21 in goals scored, and #23 in goals against. The Blues are 4-1-1 in their last six against the Flyers heading into this season's first matchup. Play St. Louis.
