Including tonight five games left before the all-star break.

I think they need seven or more points during this time.

If they can sonehow turn it into an 8 game win streak, this team would then be play off bound. That's too much hope. 7 or more points should put them in the mix. Anything higher is good. Anything lower should lead to trade considerations.

Colorado, Minnesota, and Dallas all within our reach. One of the 4 of us will be guaranteed the #3 spot in the division. Three Pacific teams between us and a WC spot, again all within our reach. Anything is possible.

I think BLUES need to take at least 4 of 5 before all star break to a have chance to make playoffs.

goaltending still needs to be addressed...

BLUES need to ride JB50 as long as he got confidence and is winning games but he is not the answer to this team long run this should be Army's #1 concern. if BLUES win 4 of 5 goaltending should be addressed immediately during all star break!

Great play Dunn. You gave up the puck then an ill timed line change. I expect him to be a healthy scratch next game. (frank)ing idiot

I have always hated that 'pass the puck backwards into your own zone' play the moment the guy gets pressured in the neutral zone. It's too much of a turnover risk IMO. Pietrangelo does it all the time.

One of the many reasons I can't stand the sight of him.

Do it when you're 3-on-3 is beyond stupid. There's open ice everywhere......The Blues never got the puck back.

Yeah, it is dumb 3 on 3, and is dumb on the power play.

It can only be effective if the player is skating with speed and drops it. The D have to be respecting the player with the puck. If you are not skating with speed, it is too easy for the D to pressure and attack the puck on the drop pass.

The Blues just need to stop it. It isn't working.

Dunn butchered that. Generally passing the puck back into the neutral zone is encouraged on 3v3. Don't mind that one bit. Dunn screwed you guys on what should be a good play.

Allen Starts. He has been aces on the road and even better against Boston.
