In our inaugural Monday Matchup, we saw David Backes go up against Troy Brouwer. While it was a tough call and could have gone either way, the money situation gave the slight edge to the newcomer, Brouwer.
This week, we move to the fourth line. The St. Louis Blues have unrestricted free agents in Scottie Upshall and Steve Ott.
In a similar storyline to the Backes/Brouwer match, both players make around the same amount of money, one player has a bit more history with the Blues than the other and their production is similar.
