Bruce’s Analysis:
The campaign has gone pear-shaped for the Blues but never as bad as Monday in Nashville when St Louis squandered a 5-1 lead in a 6-5 loss at Bridgestone. That result made it losses in seven of the last eight, two of those defeats vs. the Stars, though by narrow 3-2 and 4-3 margins.
Jordan Binnington was in the net for St Louis in both of those losses and has had a mostly-miserable campaign, especially lately with six straight losses. In January, he was 1-6-0 with a 3.75 GAA and .854 saves; though that was maybe better than December, when he was 1-5-1 with a 4.77 GAA and .839 saves. Meanwhile, Dallas enters tonight very hot with five straight wins. Play Stars on Puck Line
