The Blues’ two prime national broadcast games this season have come against the Minnesota Wild. First, there was the 2022 NHL Winter Classic on January 1st, where the Blues beat the Wild 6-4. This afternoon’s game, the conclusion to the season series, will be broadcast on ABC and ESPN+ for those on the go.
A few seasons ago, it would’ve been hard to envision a late-season matchup between the Blues and the Wild as prime national TV fodder, but with both teams displaying some fantastic firepower this season, there really couldn’t’ve been a better game for ABC to choose to highlight.
