DALLAS (Interstat) — The struggling St. Louis Blues face a stiff road test against the Dallas Stars on Friday night at American Airlines Center in a Central Division matchup. The Blues (19-31-0) enter on a two-game skid, including a 3-1 loss at Winnipeg on Tuesday. Their season has been defined by inconsistency, though they did earn a 3-0 home win over Carolina on Jan. 13. St. Louis will look to center Jordan Kyrou to provide a spark. He scored the team’s lone goal against the Jets and has recorded four points (one goal, three assists) in his last 10 games. Dallas (28-22-0), coming off a dominant 6-2 victory over Boston on Tuesday, holds a significant edge in the standings. The Stars have shown a potent offense lately, led by left wing Jason Robertson. He erupted for two goals and nine shots in the win over the Bruins and has been a consistent point producer, tallying 12 points (six goals, six assists) over his last 10 contests. The teams last met on Oct. 18, 2025, with St. Louis securing a 3-1 home victory. This begins a key home-and-home set, as the Stars will visit St. Louis next Tuesday. According to National Statistical’s game simulator, the projected final score is Dallas 3, St. Louis 2. The Blues will need to contain Robertson and Dallas’s offensive depth while finding more consistent scoring beyond Kyrou to defy that prediction. Puck drop is scheduled for 7 p.m. CST.
