#15/16 ASA TOP PLAY ON 6* OVER 6 Goals - Calgary Flames at St Louis Blues, Tuesday at 8 PM ET - It is very likely that Jacob Markstrom will get the start in goal here for the Flames tonight as he was the first one off the ice at this morning's skate. That is noteworthy as he was pulled from his most recent start after allowing 3 goals on just 11 shots. Markstrom has allowed at least 3 goals in 3 of his last 4 road starts. Even if he does not start we would like the over here as the Blues, even without Vladimir Tarasenko, continue to score well. By the way, last time Markstrom faced the Blues they scored 5 times against him. The problem for St Louis, other than the recent rare strong start (shutout!) by Thomas Greiss in most recent game, is that #1 goalie Jordan Binnington has struggled badly. He was in the starters crease at this morning's skate so he is expected to get the start here. Binnington has conceded 17 times in his last 4 starts so the Flames should enjoy success here. If Greiss would happen to start (odds are slim of that) he was not impressive prior to the unlikely shutout versus Wild over the weekend. St Louis is off the 3-0 win but this followed 9 of 11 Blues games totaling at least 7 goals. The Flames are hungry here as they are off a loss and they have scored an average of 3.6 goals per game in regulation time of their last 7 road games! Look for at least 7 in this one! Over is our play here.
