Our edge: Florida still has the name, but it doesn't have Aleksander Barkov or Brad Marchand. St. Louis is tough at home and has the better goalie numbers in this matchup. And the Blues are the underdog? Give me St. Louis at plus money.

01 · MONEYLINEOUR PICK

Blues ML

Our number: STL 60%

The Blues are a different team at home

St. Louis has won five of eight at Enterprise Center and comes in on a two-game win streak, including a 1-0 shootout win in Utah. The Blues kill 86% of penalties and have allowed only seven power-play goals all season.

Florida lives in the penalty box

The Panthers have 315 penalty minutes, more than double St. Louis’s 145. That’s a lot of time spent killing penalties, even for a team that kills them well.

The Panthers are thin down the middle

Matthew Tkachuk has 28 points, 24 of them assists, and Sam Reinhart has 11 goals. But Barkov and Marchand are both on injured reserve, and Florida has won only six of 13 on the road.

Our numbers have the Blues winning about 60% of the time. The price says closer to 47%. That’s the biggest gap on Saturday’s board, and a lot of it is the goalies: Hofer has been stopping pucks at a better rate than Markstrom.

How this blows up on me

What scares me: Florida’s power play scores on 23.8% of its chances, and the Blues score under three goals a game, so one bad penalty could decide it.

Take the Blues on the moneyline at +105 at FanDuel. The home team with the better goalie, at plus money. It lands on the receipts page win or lose. Let’s go Blues.
