Money Line Pick
UTA Mammoth Win(-170)

The St. Louis Blues are in Utah to take on the Mammoth on Friday night. It’s been a rough season for the Blues, as they enter this contest 7th in the Central division with 42 points. Things got even rougher for St. Louis on Wednesday in a 7-3 loss to Chicago. In a situation that went viral on social media, Jim Montgomery tried to pull Jordan Binnington, but couldn’t find backup goaltender Joel Hofer to put in the game. Hofer was eventually found looming behind a corner in the tunnel, but never entered the game. The situation showed some dysfunction on the St. Louis bench, and now the Blues have to try to bounce back against a tough Utah team on the road.

The Mammoth have been great on home ice all season long, and they now have another winnable game on deck in this one. Goaltender Karel Vejmelka is tied for the NHL lead with 19 wins, and he has benefitted from a stingy defensive unit in front of him. Utah is allowing just 25.3 shots on goal per game, which is the 3rd-best mark in the league. The Blues are scoring a league-low 2.50 goals per game, so Vejmelka and company should be able to find the win column in this matchup. Playing at home, back the Mammoth.
