Blues Face Busy End to the Week

The St. Louis Blues will likely be fatigued coming into this clash after playing on Thursday and Saturday.

On Thursday, they host the Seattle Kraken at the Enterprise Center. Jim Montgomery’s side have endured a testing 2025-26, and they continue to sit at the bottom of the Central Division.

They have allowed a high of 203 goals, scoring just 147 in reply. Jake Neighbours is the team’s main attacking threat, but his tally of 12 goals indicates their struggles at the top of the ice.

Devils Struggling for Winning Momentum

The NJ Devils still remain in playoff contention, but their recent form indicates their struggles.

They come into this road game after losing their last four, while no side in the Metropolitan Division have scored fewer goals in 2025-26. Sheldon Keefe’s side returned to action on Thursday, but they were offensively weak in the 2-1 home loss against the Buffalo Sabres.

Timo Meier was the only player showing quality at the top of the ice, scoring once from six efforts on goal.
