This playoff series is currently tied 2-2, so game 5 will be pivotal tonight. Notably, the Blues have won back-to-back games.

In their most recent game, the Blues defeated Winnipeg 5-1. During the victory, Jake Neighbours led the St. Louis offense. He ended the game with one goal and two assists, so he will try to perform similarly tonight.

In order to win this evening, the Jets will need great performances from their star forwards Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor. Both players lead the team with five points in this series, so they will look to continue their offensive success tonight.

Scheifele will need to bounce back tonight, as he ended last game with zero points.
