Buffalo has lost three straight games and will look to snap the skid tonight while St. Louis had a seven-match winning streak snapped last time out.

The Sabres are coming off of a 6-1 defeat at the hands of the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday that saw Zemgus Girgensons notch the only tally for Buffalo, his third of the year.

Girgensons is third on the team with six points off of three goals and three assists while Tyler Ennis (four tallies, three helpers) is second with seven points and Drew Stafford paces the team with eight by way of lighting the lamp three times and adding five assists.

Chris Stewart will be playing a familiar foe as he takes on his old team in the Blues.

"It's always a little weird playing against your former team," Stewart said, according to NHL.com. "I think it's exciting. It's an easy game definitely to get up for. We've got a lot to prove. We got shelled last game and we've got to come out with the right mentality."

The Blues lost for the first time in eight games Saturday night with a 2-1 defeat to the Central Division-leading Nashville Predators on Saturday. Jori Lehtera notched his third goal of the campaign in the loss.

Lehtera is third on the team with 11 points off of three goals and eight assists while Jaden Schwartz (six markers, six helpers) is second with 12 points and Vladimir Tarasenko has a team-best 17 by way of finding the twine nine times and adding eight assists.

While Buffalo enters play with the least amount of points and goals in the NHL, St. Louis isn't looking past it.

"All the players have been around here for a long time and we know those games, they are the hardest games to play in," Blues center Patrik Berglund told NHL.com. "We know it's going to be a really hard-fought game. We've got to play them the same way as we do other teams. They want to get in here and knock us off. We've got to give them an honest game."

In net, St. Louis is slated to turn to Brian Elliott, who is 5-3-1 with a 2.06 goals-against average and a .923 save percentage thus far this season.

Buffalo is likely to respond with Michal Neuvirth in the crease and he is 2-4-1 thus far with a 2.66 GAA and a .929 save percentage this season.

The Sabres look to snap a three-game skid while the Blues hope to start a new winning streak when the lights come up at the Scottrade Center tonight in St. Louis.
