The Red Wings head to St.Louis tonight, as the Blues continue to their surprise free fall in the standings and the Wings, well, aren’t going anywhere.
Last night the Blues lost in Minnesota 8 to 3. Yes, you don’t need your eyes checked, the Minnesota Wild scored 8 goals in one game vs. a team that supposedly had one of the better defenses entering the season and at one point seemed to have a top tier goaltending tandem between Jake Allen and Carter Hutton. In allowing 8 goals Allen was chased and it put a likely exclamation on their 7 game losing streak and their first game since trading team leader Paul Stastny.
