St. Louis gases on
It’s hard not to be impressed by St. Louis season introduction. 17 wins of 23 possible beds for a first place in the Western Conference table, as well as a second place in the overall table. A season start that clearly exceeded all expectations of the team ahead of the season. Above all, have you proved a sylvass offensive, or what about 84 goals ahead on 24 games played? Most goals ahead of all teams in the Western Conference. In the Eastern Conference, only Islanders (89), Toronto (92) and Tampa Bay (88) have scored more goals.
St. Louise crosses 3.33 goals / match, home at Scottrade Center, you score 3.83 goals / match. At home, nine of the 12 played matches have also won, while making 14 goals forward on the last three home matches. The day form is superb with four wins on the last five matches. A player who convinced this season is Jaden Schwarts, who was noted for 13 goals and 19 assists on 24 games played. Tops the team’s internal scoring. Most of the time is in an offensive way, a roughly important puzzle piece in the offensive. With three days rest in the legs should St. Louis is seen with really nice victory chances in the face, against a tired Anaheim Ducks who is also completely under the ice.
Anaheim with four straight losses
Anaheim’s form curve points nail downwards – in the luggage you have four straight losses, with a goal difference that is 7-16. Lastly, the ducks went on a heavy 7-3 loss away from Chicago Blackhawks, in an event where the defense game looked really ugly. Just the defense game has looked alarmingly weak during the season – 73 goals scored on 24 games played testify to it. On 24 games played 14 winnings have been collected, one facit that sleeps for a modest 14th place in the Western Conference table.
On the injury front, it looks heavy for Anaheim. Richard Rakell, Ryan Getzlaf and Ondrej Kase miss the match due to injury. Brandon Montour injured in the loss of Chicago at the latest, being tested late according to recent reports. Patrick Eaves is still out because of illness. At least, heavy interruptions for the guests, which were last matched recently. There is clearly a risk of tired legs. I do not really see how to resist St. Louis Blues on the move, a Blues which must clearly be regarded as one of the league’s strongest teams at the moment.
