St. Louis can also keep up with the tempo-they've managed to score five or more goals in several recent games, including a victory over Anaheim (6-2). Given Colorado's style, the visitors' shaky defense, and the overall scoring ability of both teams, this game could be wide open. Our pick is over 5.5 total goals.
