After months of waiting, the St. Louis Blues will finally begin their defense of the club's first Central Division title in 12 years tonight when they face the Detroit Redwings at Scottrade Center.  The Blues are primed to repeat as all six of the club's top scorers, including potent defensemen Alex Pietrangelo and Kevin Shattenkirk are all returning along with both 2012 Jennings Trophy WInners St. Jaroslav Halak and Brian Elliott in net.

The puck drops at 7 pm.
