Blues Lose Game 2-1, Series 4-2
The Blues' season draws to a close despite some excellent post-season defensive play.
The Blues' season draws to a close despite some excellent post-season defensive play.
Tonight is the ultimate in do or die hockey, at least until game seven. There's going to be a game seven, right guys?
This is do or die time for the Blues, who are winless in LA in their past two seasons, playoffs included.
You all probably already know what this is going to say.
Hopefully tonight won't be the last home game of the season for the Blues; there's no doubt about it - they have to win.
It's been a while since any of us can remember home ice advantage mattering so much in a series.
Special thanks to Game Time contributor Artie Clark for this post. Everything contained within is all his. Oh, and Battle of Cali? Here're some for your f-bomb count.
Instead of a chance to close it out tonight, the Blues need to win two of the next three games to advance to round two. It seems easier said than done.
That was, hands down, the worst Blues game since their loss in Colorado last month. What happened?
Barret Jackman speaks for us all.
Vladimir Tarasenko is back and Adam Cracknell has been un-released for tonight's game.
Funny, isn't it, how one loss can turn the dynamic of a playoff series.
Tonight went into a must-win situation pretty quickly for the Blues. Scoring would go a long ways to helping that happen.
The Blues squandered a quality performance by Brian Elliott, and could be in danger of squandering a 2-0 series lead.
Tonight's the night that the Blues can force the Kings to overcome history and a 3-0 deficit. Play tough hockey, boys, but play it smart.
The Blues need to tighten things up and not cave in to the Kings' pressure if they want to win tonight in LA. Oh, and they also need to score probably more than two goals.
The Blues head into Los Angeles with a 2-0 series lead. Will they continue their strong road play and add to it?
Barret Jackman gets a game-winning goal in the playoffs against the defending Stanley Cup Champions? What alternate universe IS this, anyway?
Time for some more big hits, solid goaltending, and Blues momentum building.
The Blues will have to keep their endurance up against the Kings if they want to go to LA leading two games to none.
The Kings won't be as sluggish as they were on Tuesday night; will the Blues be able to keep the momentum on their side?
