Blues Face Flyers After Win Against Calgary

ST. LOUIS, MO — The St. Louis Blues are riding high following their recent victory over the Calgary Flames. They look to keep the momentum going as they prepare to face the Philadelphia Flyers on Friday, Nov. 14 at 8 p.m. ET at Enterprise Center.

After a solid performance and a growing confidence level, the Blues aim to deliver a strong showing in front of their home crowd. They have two games scheduled at home before hitting the road again, making this an important stretch for the team to establish their game.

The Flyers begin this matchup looking to bounce back after a tough start to the season under new coach Rick Tocchet. Tocchet’s leadership aims to transform the squad, blending young talent with seasoned veterans like Travis Konecny and Sean Couturier.

Konecny, who has been a key player for Philadelphia, is entering the game on an impressive eight-game points streak. He scored an assist in the Flyers’ last game, raising his season total to 14 points. Meanwhile, Blues forward Dylan Holloway has found his stride, scoring in back-to-back games and making significant contributions.

Historically, the Blues and Flyers have kept their meetings close. St. Louis went 0-1-1 against Philadelphia last season but has recently evened their performance, going 2-2-1 in their last five matchups. The Blues have a strong penalty kill against the Flyers, having killed off 19 penalties without allowing a power-play goal in their last eight games against them.

Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington is set to start, having secured two wins in his last three outings after struggling through a five-game losing streak. Conversely, the Flyers will put Sam Ersson in the net, looking for a turnaround after previous games.

This will be the first of two meetings this season, with a rematch scheduled for Nov. 20 in Philadelphia. The anticipation for the game is high as both teams look to capitalize on the opportunity as they navigate through the early season.
