You guys have nothing to worry about. Coach Maurice will make wacky decisions that will bring delight to the St. Louis faithful. |

The games have been very close. Blues goaltending has been better than Winnipeg (the O'Reilly goal was surprising). Each team takes turns being dominant for stretches.
Scoring the first goal will be huge (as usual). This game Winnipeg either gets back in the series, and it goes long.....or the Blues wrap it up early (5 games?).
I'm very excited, going to the game. Hoping for a Blues win! |

Heading out soon for the game. I'll try to post on twitter tonight. |

A proud Winnipeg team has raised their level. Now the Blues have to respond. |

Give the Jets credit for playing a fantastic road game but, as good as Winnipeg was through 2 and as poor as the Blues were in the 2nd (looked completely dead tired and stopped moving their feet), Pat Maroon almost tied the game right before the Tanev soccer style redirected the puck into the net to extend the lead back to 2.
Two of the six goals were from very poor individual plays - Petro made a terrible play, deflecting one into his own net and Binner was sitting on his skate heel blades rather with this shoulder up on the post on the Buff goal.
Blues were out of sorts all night, colliding with each other, poor passes, standing around, missing the net more with shot attempts, etc. The Playoffs are a marathon, not a sprint. It will be interesting to see how the teams respond Tuesday. |

Fantastic examples, J!
Do you think the loss will provide an opportunity for Chief to change up the lineup? If Sanford sits, who’s the most likely to fill his spot? Fabbri has shown a penchant for being hot headed and retaliatory. Both Blais and Mac are young guys with not a lot of miles on the legs this year. Do you think he’d go with one of those two or a seventh defenseman? |

Series will swing with the outcome of Game 4. As they usually do.
I wish there was a way to avoid all the home game hype that comes with playoff hockey. Especially the opener. If often leaves the home town team flat for some reason. I don't give a whit about laser shows and blingy wrist bands.
Now that it's out of the way, maybe they'll settle back down and keep control of the series. |

I think Blais goes in for Sanford but I easily could be wrong. Hopefully Bortuzzo is ok after a couple of those blocked shots. |

I wouldn't mind having Bortz sit. Not been overly impressed by him and would like to see Gunner or MDZ get back in there.
And Sanford going out is a no-brainer. I would actually be very surprised if Berube plays him again on Tuesday. |

I know the Blues have moved on, but man would I love to see this guy and Byfuglien... https://youtu.be/ydebjwIVebI
Of course, I’d like to keep Sunny too! |

So Fabbri in for Sandford, not Blais.
Perron had a maintenance day today but Bozak took his spot on the PP reps, not the placeholder Blais which could mean they were working on it in case they needed to switch Perron out (limit minutes, re-injure, etc). |
