Sun Mar 23 21:40:00 UTC 2025: ## Blues Look to Extend Winning Streak Against Predators

**St. Louis, MO** – The St. Louis Blues, riding a five-game winning streak, aim to continue their playoff push when they host the Nashville Predators on Sunday at 5 p.m. CT at Enterprise Center. The game will be broadcast on FanDuel Sports Network and 101 ESPN, and tickets are available online at ticketmaster.com.

The Blues’ recent success has seen them climb into the second Wild Card spot in the Western Conference with 79 points. Their fourth line has been instrumental in this surge, with Alexey Toropchenko and Nathan Walker each contributing two points in Saturday’s 4-1 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks. Toropchenko’s performance included the game-winning goal, his second of the season. Coach Jim Montgomery praised the team’s improved habits as a key factor in their recent success.

However, the Blues face a tight race for a playoff berth, with Calgary, Vancouver, and Utah all within striking distance. The upcoming game against Nashville marks the second of three meetings between the two teams in 10 days, with St. Louis winning the first two encounters.

The Predators, meanwhile, ended a four-game losing skid with a 5-2 comeback win against the Toronto Maple Leafs. Filip Forsberg and Luke Evangelista led the offensive charge with three-point nights. The Blues may face Predators backup goalie Justus Annunen on Sunday, after Juuse Saros started Saturday’s game. Nashville currently sits seventh in the Central Division with 60 points.

Both Toropchenko and Evangelista enter Sunday’s game on hot streaks, having significantly contributed to their respective teams’ recent performances. The clash promises to be a crucial contest for both teams in their pursuit of postseason contention.
