    Jordan Kyrou continues to feel it.

    The St. Louis Blues forward scored in his NHL career-best fifth straight game on Tuesday, a 4-1 loss against the New Jersey Devils on Tuesday.

    Today against the Tampa Bay Lightning (6 p.m.; FDSNMW, ESPN 101.1-FM), Kyrou will go for six in a row and the Blues (15-15-3) will need all the offense they can get against a Lightning side that has won three straight and five of six in December.

    Tampa Bay (17-10-2) is averaging 5.17 goals per game in December and has scored three or more goals in 13 of 15 games.

    Kyrou leads the Blues in goals (14) and points (28) and also scored against the Lightning earlier this season in a 3-2 Blues win on Nov. 5.

    He is averaging a point per game in seven career games (four goals, three assists) against the Lightning with a plus-2.
