ST. LOUIS -- It's right back on the horse for the St. Louis Blues [http://thn.com/stlouis] (3-5-1), who look to snap a four-game skid on Tuesday with a rematch against the Detroit Red Wings [http://thn.com/detroit] (6-3-0) at 7:15 p.m. (FDSNMW, ESPN 101.1-FM) as part of NHL Frozen Frenzy, where all 32 teams are in action. It's unquestionable that the Blues are in a slump. They are 0-3-1 the past four games and have lost three in a row in regulation, outscored in those games 19-11. They're getting the offensive production, although judging by the chances they continue to create each game, it's conceivable to say that there's more to be had. They simply are not keeping the puck out of the net. Monday's 6-3 loss to the Pittsburgh Penguins was another example [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/st-louis-blues/latest-news/observations-from-blues-6-3-loss-vs-penguins]. The Blues and Red Wings will wrap up their season series after Detroit rallied from a 4-0 deficit on Saturday at Little Caesars Arena to score six unanswered in a 6-4 win [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/st-louis-blues/latest-news/observations-from-blues-6-4-collapse-vs-red-wings]. The Blues did not hold a morning skate on Tuesday, and coach Jim Montgomery will update any potential lineup changes at 6 p.m. (CT), but Jordan Binnington will get the start in goal after Joel Hofer, who has struggled mightily his last three starts, allowed five goals on 25 shots Monday.
