The Flames enter the contest riding momentum from consecutive victories over Anaheim and Los Angeles, while the Blues aim to bounce back from a disappointing 2-1 loss to Columbus.
St. Louis has dominated this rivalry recently, posting an impressive 8-2-0 record in their last 10 meetings against Calgary.
The Blues' offense has shown signs of life at home, netting nine goals in their last three games at Enterprise Center, while Calgary's road performance has been concerning with losses in four of their last six away games.
Both teams' special teams could play a crucial role, with the Flames converting 19% of their power play opportunities against a Blues penalty kill unit ranked 26th in the league.
