Flyers at Blues
(NHL) Flyers (PHI) vs. Blues (STL),
Money Line: -135.00 Blues (STL) (Home)
Result: Loss
After a recent surge, the Flyers hit the 'Lou on a high note after winning at Nashville on Wednesday and again last night vs. the Rangers...but do we really want to buck the "Jim Montgomery bounce" that the Blues are experiencing? We've seen this dynamic before when a new coach arrives midstream and fortunes immediately change, and it's certainly happening with the Blues, now 2-0 since Monty replaced Drew Bannister. The defense has stiffened, allowing only two goals across those outings, with both goalies, Joel Hofer and Jordan Binnington, posting wins (Binnington apparently goes again tonight). This is a toughs scheduling stretch for Philly, playing a third game in four nights, and bouncing between road and home dates in the process. Play Blues on Money Line
