The Bruins are coming into this game with a 7-7-2 record this season and they have not been playing well in their recent games. They are coming off of a 3-2 loss at home in OT against the Senators in their last game and they have lost 2 of their last 3 games as well. Their offense has not been good in these games either as they have scored 2 goals or less in 3 of their last 4 as well as 5 of their last 7 games. They are going up against a Blues team that is 7-8-0 this season and has not been playing well in their recent games. They have lost their last 2 straight games and their defense has been awful in these, allowing 12 goals in their last 2 games alone, but they are also coming off of an 8-1 loss at home against the Capitals in their last game and there is going to be a big response from the Blues after that kind of loss. They have lost their last 2 straight games at home, but they have also won 2 of their 4 games on this 5 game homestand and this is their last chance to correct those last 2 games before going on the road for a 3 game road trip. The Blues are going to tighten up on defense here after allowing 8 goals in their last game and this is a Bruins team that has not been scoring many goals recently, playing in much closer games as well. The Blues will bounce back in this game and win this game against the Bruins at home.
