Re: blues vs blackhawks
God I'm nervous about tonight. Feels like 2012 NLCS all over again.
Pro's: We're at home, Shaw is suspended, we have all the momentum.
Con's: It's frigging Chicago. Lose and you're back in Chicago, Lose that and you're back here for an elimination game.
I'll feel much better about this when they are shaking hands, until then.... We haven't won anything.

The 9:30 starts are bad, but the Cardinals-Padres game tomorrow begins at 10:40 my time.

Re: blues vs blackhawks
It started 830 our time but getting over at 11 is a killer. At least the cardinals are on the west coast, playing a west coast team. This is 2 midwest teams playing eachother in the playoffs. Thats not doing much to build fsn base or attract the casual fan.

Re: blues vs blackhawks
AP, these are called "soft goals" in hockey parlance.

Nashville being in the West is kind of throwing things off.
They're hockey people. Winnipeg used to be in the East.

Use it at work tomorrow. You'll get nods of acknowledgement.
If you really want to sound smart around your non-hockey friends, the next time you're watching a game with them and there's a 2-goal spread, say "The next goal is big."
Or "A 2-goal lead is the worst lead in hockey" is also acceptable.

Even the people I know that follow hockey dont know a thing about it. Honestly half my interest in this is the fact that it is a playoff game and i can root against chicago and for stl. It could be badminton and id be interested.

Re: blues vs blackhawks
Well here it is Blues. There's one game on the schedule. One game for you to prove this year IS different. One game for you to show us why you are to be considered a contender. One game to give back to your fans who are willing to give you 4000.00 per seat to sit in the upper level. One game to justify the prices you charge.
Good teams find ways to win a double overtime game when their backs are against the ropes. Down 3-1 and playing on the road. Good teams follow that with a decisive win in game 6 to force game 7. Great teams win game 7.
Here's your one game to step up, let's see what you do.
