The St. Louis Blues went through a stretch where they allowed just 34 goals in 20 games, for 1.7 per contest. While they have pitched a pair of shutouts in their last two games, it still has turned the 12.7 allowed into 2.4 in their 11 games when following the big defensive stand. They will certainly be challenged by an offensively-aggressive attack by the Canucks, who have scored 86 times in their last 24 games at 3.5 per contest. This is a low total and I look for a lot more scoring than expected here, as the Canucks are also 4-1 to the OVER when playing teams that are over .600 at home. Play this one OVER the total.
