Its a slow Friday night in the NHL, with just two games on the docket. Push come to shove I like the Blackhawks at plus money vs. the Blues mostly because I rate these teams pretty similarly.
But Joel Hofer is in the nets for St Louis and he’s played well over the last month with a 91.7% Save% and 3.23 GSAA. Plus the team seems to play better in front of Hofer than they do in front of their nominal top goalie Jordan Binnington, he of Stanley Cup and 4 Nations gold. So I will take a pass.
