St. Louis Blues vs Ottawa Senators: The Blues need to get better

Prediction for the NHL St. Louis Blues vs Ottawa Senators match, which will take place on March 9. Check the team conditions and choose several betting options.

The Blues lost to the Rangers, who were equally strong opponents. However, they lost to the Islanders and New Jersey, which is unimaginable. Thankfully, inferior Minnesota didn't take advantage of that and beat St Louis in the Central Division standings. At the moment, the Blues are in second place with 71 points.

It's been five games since the last win for the Senators. They beat tough Minnesota by one goal. Since then, Ottawa has not been able to add a single point to its record books. Of course, if you win every five games, you can't go far. Through 55 games, the Senators have scored 43 points, allowing them to settle for the penultimate spot in the Central Division standings. In their last game, Ottawa lost to Vegas 1:2.

Ottawa is in terrible shape coming into this matchup with St. Louis, which is why we don't expect any sensations. The Blues need a win now, as losing the fourth game in a row isn't acceptable. Senators are relatively passing opponents, so we don't think that the hosts will have any problems. 

Prediction: St. Louis victory + Total Over (5.5).
