The Blues (38-28-7), on a roll with seven straight victories, the longest current winning streak in the League, can pull into a tie with the Wild for the first wild card in the West. It has been a remarkable run considering St. Louis was 10 points behind Minnesota on March 14, and since the 4 Nations Face-Off ended on Feb. 20, the Blues are 13-2-2 and have averaged 4.06 goals per game, best in the League in that stretch. The Predators (27-36-8) are 21 points out of the second wild card in the West and can be eliminated from playoff contention with a lossn of any kind.
