Final
Flyers aim to continue success in St. Louis
Jan 31, 2009 - 11:27 AM Philadelphia (26-13-9) at St Louis (19-24-4), 8:30 pm ESTST. LOUIS (Ticker) -- The Philadelphia Flyers recently have seemed to enjoy their rare trips to the "Gateway City."
The Flyers will try to continue that trend when they visit the St. Louis Blues on Saturday in the first meeting between the clubs in nearly two years.
Philadelphia, which has not faced the Blues since February 10, 2007, is seeking its sixth consecutive victory in St. Louis. The Flyers have not lost at the Scottrade Center since February 29, 2000.
The Flyers, who have won four straight meetings with the Blues overall, are coming off a 6-1 triumph over the Tampa Bay Lightning.
Jeff Carter scored a pair of goals in that contest, giving the All-Star an NHL-leading 32 tallies on the season. He has 53 points and six game-winning goals this campaign.
St. Louis suffered a 3-1 setback to the Ottawa Senators on Thursday in its first contest since the All-Star break. The Blues entered the hiatus on a two-game winning streak.
Brad Winchester scored the lone goal Thursday for St. Louis, which had gone 3-0-1 over its previous four contests.
