The St. Louis Blues (10-12-7) will finish up their road trip with a game against the Montreal Canadiens (15-9-3) on Sunday evening.
The Blues are coming off a 2-1 low-scoring victory over the Ottawa Senators on Saturday that helped them avoid a 3-game skid. Joel Hofer was sensational, stopping 40 of the 41 shots he faced and allowing the only goal to be scored on the power play. Jake Neighbours of the Blues netted 2 goals in the victory. It was a good sign to see Hofer and the Blues play so well defensively, given that they are 30th in the league in goals allowed on the season.
Montreal has won back-to-back games over Winnipeg and, most recentl,y over the Maple Leafs. The 2-1 win over the Leafs was their most recent and featured tremendous net-minding by Jakub Dobes, who allowed just 1 goal on 23 shots faced. Like their counterparts in this matchup, the Canadiens are also near the bottom of the league in goals allowed but are in the top 10 in goals scored. A position that the Blues are nowhere near offensively.
Will both teams build off their recent strong defensive performances? Or will they revert to their inability to keep multiple goals out of the net?

Our Montreal Canadiens vs St. Louis Blues Prediction
We expect both defenses to revert to their typical ways in this meeting. Both teams are horrendous on the penalty kill and are allowing above the average in goals per game. While it was nice for each to hold their opponents to just a solo goal in each of their last contests, that will not be the same here. We like this one to go way over the total.
Our prediction for Montreal Canadiens vs St. Louis Blues: Over 5.5
