Blues Time Name Salvage For Stewart

Hockey Betting Lines

Home wasn't kind to a tired Winnipeg club on Friday before the Christmas break as it dropped a 4-1 decision to Pittsburgh. The game was even heading into the third period before the Penguins scored three unanswered goals on the way to outshooting the Jets 39-19.

 

"Well, I can't say I enjoyed the game, but this is what I knew could happen," said Jets head coach Claude Noel. "I thought we looked like a team that played three games in four nights."

 

The Avalanche's current eight-game home winning streak is the club's single- season record since moving to Denver in 1995. Following a perfect four-game homestand, Colorado visited Minnesota last night and notched a 4-2 win for a season high-tying fifth straight victory that halted a nine-game road losing streak.

 

"I think we might want to try this more often," said Avs head coach Joe Sacco.

 

Colorado will shoot tonight for its first six-game win streak since Dec. 10-19 of last season.

 

The Blues try to knock off the rival Red Wings for a fourth straight time this evening in the first meeting between the club's this year in Detroit.

 

In the final meeting between the teams last season, St. Louis rolled into Detroit and left town with a 10-3 victory to snap a three-game series road losing streak. It marked the first time the Blues scored 10 goals in a game since Feb. 26, 1994 and they matched a club record by getting goals from nine different skaters.

 

Chris Porter was the only Blues skater with multiple goals, while Vladimir Sobotka, Chris Stewart and Porter all had three-point nights.

 

Jaroslav Halak made 20 saves for the Blues, who have won two straight and are 7-1-1 in their past nine. They also moved to 15-3-4 under Hitchcock and have gone from 14th overall in the West to fourth in that span.

 

Cracknell was recalled to replace T.J. Oshie in the lineup, with the latter also expected to sit out tonight due to a left wrist injury.
