The Flames (4-4-3) remain without Miikka Kiprusoff, who may not return until after this month due to a sprained knee ligament. Leland Irving has taken his place.
The Flames will hope Mike Cammalleri will continue his hot play of late, as he recorded seven of his season's nine points in his last two games. Cammalleri had a hat trick in his return Wednesday after missing three games with a hip injury as Calgary posted its highest scoring game of the season in a 7-4 home victory over Dallas.
Meanwhile, St. Louis (7-5-1) is unsure when Jaroslav Halak will return. Halak is listed as day to day after missing the last five games with a groin strain, and coach Ken Hitchcock gave rookie Jake Allen his first career start over a struggling Brian Elliott in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime victory at Detroit.
St. Louis opened a three-game trip by ending a five-game losing streak when Alex Steen scored in overtime against the Red Wings.
St. Louis outscored Calgary 11-6 in going 3-1-0 in the 2011-12 season series. The Blues went 2 for 10 on the power play while the Flames were 1 for 13.
These clubs meet twice more in this abbreviated season.
