DENVER - Jake Allen will start Saturday when the Blues meet the Colorado Avalanche in the biggest game of their season (8 p.m. CT, FSMW, FSGO, KMOX).
If the Blues win, or get one point in overtime or a shootout, they're headed to the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the seventh consecutive season.
The Blues cannot lose in regulation.

"Jake, he just has to do his job," Blues Head Coach Mike Yeo said. "That's plain and simple what we need from every guy tonight. Obviously, at the end of the night if you win the game, somebody is going to be looked at as a hero. But ultimately, when we're playing our best, it's because we have a bunch of guys just going out there and doing their jobs and doing their jobs really well."
Yeo said Oskar Sundqvist will return to the lineup, replacing Tage Thompson.
Here is a projected lineup for the game:
