St. Louis Blues

Players to target: Brayden Schenn, Jaden Schwartz, and Vladimir Tarasenko

The Chicago Blackhawks are looking to play spoiler tonight. And, lately, Chicago is in a groove with a 3-1-1 record in their last five games. However, they have to contend with the top line of the St. Louis Blues, which struck for six points in their meeting on Wednesday.

St. Louis has increased urgency with the playoffs on the line. Also, consider that the Blues have allowed 20 goals over their previous five contests. With that poor defensive effort, this is a team that has to score to win. At times, they should trade chances and shots with Chicago in this one.

There is risk with this game, but do watch for line shifts. For price relief, Vince Dunn can replace Schwartz or Schenn in a stack to save some money and get exposure to the top power-play unit. Finally, Chicago has a series of one-off plays, including Duncan Keith, Alex DeBrincat, and Patrick Kane, so this matchup has a little of everything and could make for an interesting game stack, with the Blues' top line leading the way.
