After yesterday's puke & rally from Calgary/Nashville to go 2-0, you are bound to get F-ed if you follow this one today. Don't hate the law of averages.
Kings/Blues OVER 5.5 (-125 Bookmaker)
Blues games are a perfect 6 for 6 in overs this season and I see no reason to fade that trend as all of those games have seen at least 7 goals! The Blues offense has been steady so far with the power play unit really humming right now. STL has scored multiple PP goals in 4 of 6 this season while the Kings have been quite gritty at killing penalties off. LA has allowed just 1 PP goal in 18 opportunites. Still, the Kings have given up 3 goals in all but one of their 5 games. Offensively, LA has found some success with 13 goals in their last 3 contests and the Blues are giving up around 3 goals per game this season. LA will need to account for more with their own PP to get this game in the over territory, but STL has allowed 3 PP goals in their last two, so this could be the time. King me bitch! Let's light the lamp!
