Joel Hofer stopped 30 of the 31 shots he faced in Thursday\u2019s win. Robert Thomas and Phillip Broberg each had a goal and two assists. The Blues power-play ranks eighth in the NHL at 25.7% and the penalty kill is sixth at 85.3%. <\/p>\n
Detroit Red Wings News & Notes<\/p>\n
Detroit suspended Dylan Larkin without pay on Oct. 29 after general manager Shawn Horcoff said the captain\u2019s agent informed the team he would no longer play for the Red Wings. Larkin will remain away from the club until a trade is completed, and the team has said it is prepared to wait as long as necessary. He finished with six points in 10 games this season and 649 points in 818 games with Detroit.<\/p>\n
The Red Wings answered with a 4-1 home win over Chicago hours after the suspension. Viktor Arvidsson recorded a hat trick against the team that signed Patrick Kane in the offseason, and John Gibson stopped 18 of 19 shots in his return to the net after backing up in Edmonton. Simon Edvinsson\u2019s contract situation and trade request also remain unresolved, with San Jose reportedly making a serious offer and Boston among the teams expressing interest. <\/p>\n

Players To Watch<\/p>\n
Jimmy Snuggerud \u2014 St. Louis Blues<\/p>\n
Snuggerud scored on two shots in 15:18 last time out, and Box Score Junkie has him at 54.0% Corsi-for with 61.8 shot attempts for per 60 this season to date \u2014 the best possession mark among Blues regulars. He\u2019s also at seven goals on 3.6 expected, a +3.4 finishing gap that\u2019s worth monitoring for regression.<\/p>\n
Lucas Raymond \u2014 Detroit Red Wings<\/p>\n
Raymond scored on two shots last game and drives play as well as anyone here: Box Score Junkie credits him with 64.7% Corsi-for and 78.2 shot attempts for per 60 across 266 minutes this season to date. Six goals on 5.2 expected says the finishing is sustainable, and Larkin\u2019s absence should mean more usage.<\/p>\n
