Los Angeles Kings at St. Louis Blues

The Blues are the last team to play a game since the All-Star break so they should be pretty fired up to get back in action, especially the way things ended prior to the break. St. Louis was on an 8-0-1 run before losing at Detroit, which all teams have been doing, and then losing in a shootout against Pittsburgh at home to close out the first half. It was a rare home loss as the Blues have 21 wins on their home ice which is the most home wins of any team in the league.

The Kings opened the second half with a win over Columbus but that was at home where the Kings were playing their fourth straight home game in a span of 14 days so travel has been non-existent for a while. That is all about to change though as Los Angeles embarks upon its longest roadtrip of the season as it plays its next six games on the road. The Kings still have a fighting chance for home ice advantage in the playoffs as they trail Nashville by six points but it is unlikely with two teams ahead of them.

As mentioned, the Blues suffered a rare home loss in their last game and they have had only seven losses at Scottrade Center, three in regulation and four in extra time. One of those three losses in regulation came against Los Angeles and you can guarantee that St. Louis has not forgotten. Not only do the Blues gets to play with a ton of energy because of the long layoff but they get to play with an added purpose. The Blues are 13-3 in their last 16 home games against teams with a losing road record.

The Blues have given up a 102 goals, which is the lowest in the Western Conference, behind goalies Jaroslav Halak and Brian Elliott. Halak looks to be inside the pipes for this game as he has a 1.31 GAA over his last nine starts overall and he has a 1.94 GAA in four starts against the Kings. On the other side, Kings goalie Jonathan Quick is one of the best around but the Blues have been a nemesis as he has allowed 10 goals in his last three starts in St. Louis. The Kings are 1-6 in their last seven games following a win. 8* (6) St. Louis Blues

Washington Capitals @ New York Rangers Monday April 30, 2012 7:35 pm

Nashville Predators @ Phoenix Coyotes Friday April 27, 2012 7:00 pm
It was anything but a normal first round of the playoffs as home teams were only 18-230 heading into the second round so home ice has been far from an advantage. That was the case in the first round series for Phoenix and Nashville as the home team combined to go 3-8 in the 11 games ... read more
