What’s better than preseason hockey being back?
How about preseason hockey on back-to-back nights?
The St. Louis Blues (2-0) will travel to United Center on Tuesday to face the division rival Chicago Blackhawks at 7:30 p.m. CT.
The Blues have started the exhibition schedule with two consecutive wins, beating the Arizona Coyotes 5-4 on Saturday night in Wichita, Kansas before following up that effort with a 4-0 victory against the Dallas Stars on Monday night at American Airlines Center.
Ryan O’Reilly, Brayden Schenn, Jordan Kyrou, Brandon Saad, Justin Faulk, Nick Leddy and Jordan Binnington are expected to play in Tuesday’s matchup, giving the Blues their most-veteran lineup yet in the preseason.
Fans in St. Louis can watch the game on ESPN+. In addition, Chris Kerber and Joey Vitale will call the action live on 101 ESPN. Live audio will also be available in the Blues App.
