Great game

[CRIMPS]

Stars can clinch a playoff birth tonight with a win. They are playing St. Louis at home. Stars are on a 5 year playoff drought.

please, please, please....

With the way the Blues are playing, you may very well clinch tonight!

Here's to the Blues losing the next 6 in a row!

Ugly game last night, they chased Berra out of the net pretty fast and never recovered

[E.J.]

Yep, Don....that was ugly. Though I was feeling pretty good at the 2nd intermission...the 3rd was not pretty.

Need the Ducks to lose to the Kings tonight. They then have about 20 hours getting off the ice, to back on against the Avs Sunday.

[icehog3]

Hoping for the Avs to win tomorrow. Blues are banged up right now with Backes, Oshie, Bergland, Morrow and Roy all day-to-day, and Terasenko out. Add Miller's awful goaltending lately, the Blues not getting a single point in their last 5, and it might be a perfect time for Chicago to play them.

The Goalie is a concern for me!

Fixed it for you

Rask sucks.

And Coach Q sends him to the showers to rest after the goal...gotta love it.

Nice to see the great reaction for Ryan Smyth's last game, a good guy and great player.

He took a 5 minute and 36 second shift in the second period, that was too cool.

Kings in the Finals? Now that's rich.

[nutcracker]

So I think the outcome of the whole shebang depends on how these blokes perform:

Tuka
Sid the kid
King Hendrik (always fades come playoffs)
Jonathan Quick
Chicago D-men
Carey Price
The Kings playing their own game

Mostly the goalies make or break you. (Ask the Jets)

True, not gonna make it past the Blues , or the Aves, or even the Ducks.

Not so sure about the Sharks since they have a propensity to choke in the playoffs.

[icehog3]

I think Fleury is a bigger factor for the playoffs than Sid, and I think he will sh!t his goalie pants by Round 2 again.

Quick is proven, the Kings will win the Jennings. I think secondary scoring will be their biggest unknown.

Agreed on the Hawks D-men, the Blues' game plan will be to dump and hit. Can Keith, Hjallmarsson, Leddy and Oduya take the beatings for 6-7 games? Big question, that and the health of Toews and Kane.

Ask Adam about Rask, his Bruins fan opinion is always entertaining....
