The St. Louis Blues are in such a strange spot to begin the season. They are up against the cap after going all in on a variety of players in the offseason but have yet to put together a string of consecutive wins.
St. Louis is only four points behind the Colorado Avalanche for a playoff spot and have played two fewer games than the Avalanche. So all hope is not lost for the team this season, but it isn’t just because they are losing games that concerns me, it’s how they are losing games.
Chicago Blackhawks (6th Place In Central)
Record: 6-8-4
Last 10: 2-6-2
Season Series: CHI Leads 2-1
Point Leaders: Patrick Kane (22), Alex DeBrincat (16)
Whoever made the NHL schedule has clearly made some kind of rare error.
