The St. Louis Blues bring their blistering 12-game winning streak into Canada Life Centre Monday night, where they'll face a Winnipeg Jets squad that remains atop the Central Division despite dropping their last contest to Utah.
With St. Louis finding their offensive rhythm (averaging 3.9 goals during their hot stretch) and Winnipeg boasting the league's stingiest defense (allowing just 1.95 goals per game at home), something's gotta give when these divisional rivals face off.
History favors the Jets, who've claimed 8 of the last 10 meetings between these teams, but don't count out these surging Blues as Winnipeg Jets vs St. Louis Blues promises to deliver playoff-caliber intensity.

Winnipeg Jets vs. St. Louis Blues preview
The red-hot St. Louis Blues ride into Winnipeg carrying an impressive 12-game winning streak that's catapulted them into the Western Conference's top wild card spot, while the Central Division-leading Jets look to rebound after a disappointing 4-1 loss to Utah.
Robert Thomas has been the catalyst for St. Louis during this scorching run, dishing out three assists in their recent 5-4 victory over Colorado, though they'll face a much stingier defense in Winnipeg, who allow a league-best 2.34 goals per game.
The Canada Life Centre has been a fortress for the Jets this season, boasting an intimidating 28-6-4 home record that should give them confidence despite their recent offensive struggles.
This Central Division clash pits strength against strength – Winnipeg's second-ranked power play (29.3%) against a Blues team that's finding their stride under Jim Montgomery, going 34-16-6 since he took the reins.
Connor Hellebuyck has been nothing short of brilliant for the Jets, posting a .918 save percentage this season and allowing just 1.95 goals per game at home.
Mark Scheifele, who netted his 38th goal in Saturday's loss, will need to break through against Jordan Binnington, who's coming off a 35-save performance against the Avalanche.
History favors the Jets, who've won eight of the last ten meetings including a 4-3 shootout victory in their most recent matchup on February 22.
While the Blues have averaged nearly four goals per game during their hot streak, Winnipeg's home-ice advantage and defensive prowess might just be enough to cool off the visitors in what promises to be a tight, playoff-atmosphere battle.
