Blues Seek Redemption at Wells Fargo Center Against Flyers

As the St. Louis Blues gear up to face the Philadelphia Flyers at the Wells Fargo Center, fans are eager to see if their team can maintain their recent momentum. The Blues have shown a mixed bag of results in their last few outings, with a commanding 4-0 victory over the New York Islanders, a narrow 2-4 loss against the Toronto Maple Leafs, and a close 2-5 defeat by the Nashville Predators.

The win against the Islanders was particularly impressive as it showcased St. Louis's defensive prowess; they managed to keep their opponents scoreless while netting four goals themselves. The powerplay unit played a significant role in this game, contributing one goal from five opportunities and displaying an impressive faceoff win percentage of 83 percent during powerplays.

However, consistency has been an issue for the Blues as seen in subsequent games where they faced Toronto and Nashville. Despite putting up a good fight with two goals each time, they were unable to secure victories. A concerning trend is that while their even-strength play has been solid – scoring three out of four goals against New York – special teams have struggled recently with only one powerplay goal from nine chances across both losses.

Defensively speaking, goaltending remains strong for St. Louis; even in defeat against Nashville and Toronto, save percentages were high at 100 percent each game but were overshadowed by empty-net goals that inflated total goals against figures.

Looking ahead to Philadelphia's home ice advantage at Wells Fargo Center could prove challenging for St. Louis given recent performances away from home and fluctuating special teams' success rates.

Fans can catch this exciting matchup on March 5th on NBCS-PH or BSMW networks as both teams vie for dominance on Flyers' territory – will St. Louis Blues be able to turn around their fortunes? Only time will tell if they can leverage their strengths and overcome inconsistencies that have plagued them in past games.
