GameThread for St. Louis Blues at Dallas Stars, Dec 29, 2017

Jake Allen was fine in the Blues' loss to the Nashville Predators Wednesday evening. Hopefully tonight he'll be more fine than St. Louis native Ben Bishop. Bishop didn't travel to St. Louis for the Blues' last game against the Stars, and he's a bigger challenge for the team than Kari Lehtonen.

In a "gotta figure something out" move, Ivan Barbashev will be playing on a line with Brayden Schenn and Vladimir Tarasenko.
