St. Louis Blues Schedule Preview (March/April)
By Jason Martin
The St. Louis Blues will have four back to back games in the month of March including a three-game swing on the west coast.
St. Louis will enter the stretch run of the season with games against some of the league’s top teams. Last year, teams the Blues will face in March had a combined record of 590-490-139.
One interesting fact in the March schedule for March is that the Blues will not play the same team twice, St. Louis will play 15 games against 15 different teams during March.
The St. Louis Blues will open up the March schedule with back to back games on the 1st and 2nd. St. Louis will travel to North Carolina to take on the Hurricanes, then will head back home to the Enterprise Center to take on the Dallas Stars.
