Recent Performance Trends


The St. Louis Blues have shown a mixed bag of results in their recent outings. With a record that includes both wins and losses in equal measure over their last three games, the team's performance has been unpredictable. In their most recent game against the Oilers, despite a strong effort that saw them netting two goals in the third period, they ultimately fell short with a final score of 2-4 against Edmonton.


However, looking back at their performance over these games reveals some promising trends. The Blues have demonstrated resilience and an ability to bounce back from deficits, particularly highlighted by their victory over the Flames where they secured a win in overtime after tying up the game late in regulation time.

Their offensive play has been notably aggressive as well; accumulating a total of ten goals across these matches shows they can penetrate defenses and convert opportunities into points on the board.


Key Factors for Upcoming Game


One area where St. Louis will need to focus is improving their powerplay effectiveness and faceoff win percentage which have seen fluctuations but showed promise during certain stretches of play. Their goaltending has also been solid with notable performances that helped secure crucial wins or keep them competitive in tight matches.

Playing away at Rogers Arena presents its own set of challenges given Vancouver's home advantage and enthusiastic fan support which can energize home teams significantly. However, if recent performances are anything to go by, St. Louis is more than capable of rising to the occasion.


In conclusion, as we look forward to this matchup between two talented teams at Rogers Arena on December 10th at 10:00 PM EST available on ESPN+ and FDSMW for viewing - it's clear that both sides have strengths they'll look to leverage while addressing areas needing improvement from past games.
