ST. LOUIS — Happy holidays, from Charlie Lindgren and the rest of your St. Louis Blues. The goalie known as “Chuck” was up to his hijinks Friday night at Enterprise Center, stymying the Dallas Stars 4-1 in the team's final home game before Christmas.
The Blues’ home points streak is getting about as long as Lindgren’s sideburns – they are now 8-0-1 over their last nine home contests and improved to 17-8-5 overall. Next up are three games in Canada before Christmas, starting with a Saturday contest in Winnipeg.
At the risk of oversimplifying it, Lindgren is playing with supreme confidence. He’s seeing everything, is aggressive on puck, and seems almost unbeatable beat these days. His teammates have responded with some of the team’s best defensive play since the 2019-20 season, back-checking continuously and supporting each other in both zones.
