This is the only game between these cross-conference clubs. The Blues took the lone meeting last season with a 5-2 win at home on Nov. 19, 2010.

While both the Blues and Senators sit among the playoff standings in their respective conferences, neither has been particularly hot as of late. St. Louis has lost three of its last four games, while Ottawa is winless over its last six games.

St. Louis lost some ground in the Western Conference playoff race with a 3-1 loss at the fourth-place Nashville Predators on Saturday. Chris Porter tallied the lone goal for the Blues as Nashville goalie Pekka Rinne remained red hot with a 42-save performance. The defeat marked the Blues' fourth loss of the season to the rival Predators.

Although Ottawa hasn't won in its last six games, it still remains in the thick of the Eastern Conference playoff race. But if coach Paul MacLean and company can't find a way to heat up soon, the Senators run the risk of being caught in the standings by a couple of upstart clubs. The Maple Leafs, one of the clubs breathing down the Senators' necks, gained some ground Saturday with a 5-0 shutout win at Ottawa.

Ottawa is just having trouble getting anything done in their last six games and the game against the Blues becomes a must-win for Ottawa if they want to snap out of their current funk.
