Tale of two sweeps
Nice contrast of the Blues' post-sweep status vs. Montreal's, in the Ottawa Citizen. "Being bounced in four games in the first round of the playoffs is never pleasant, but if there's ever a case where it's not the end of the world, it's in St. Louis." No doubt. Tis post-sweep atmosphere is 180-degree difference from the sweep by Dallas in 1994. The column sort of plays on the same theme from Brad's and Gallagher's post-game reactions (which should be made into pocket Bible-like references to carry with you over the summer), but still: Cool to have others recognize what's going on here.
