Blues at Sharks Game Five GameDay Thread

The Shark Tank isn’t an easy place to win in, but the Blues’ve done it before.

Is it necessary for the Blues to win tonight’s game to advance to the Finals? No. Would it be nice? Yes.

Is it completely do-able? Sure thing. If the Blues catch the Sharks off guard early like they did Friday night and net a couple of early goals, San Jose has to play from behind. The Sharks have demonstrated that they’re more than capable of doing that - they put up a hell of a comeback effort in game four - but it’s a lot harder to come from behind than go up a few and hold a lead.

Martin Jones is beatable. Erik Karlsson may be out. The Blues had a hell of a bounceback win on Friday. This can be sent back to St. Louis with a 3-2 series lead for St. Louis.

This is your GameDay Thread. Comment like you want a chance to clinch a trip to the Stanley Cup Final Tuesday night.

Let’s do this. Let’s Go Blues.
