Blues looking to follow rare blueprint to move on

CHICAGO -- One team since the Chicago Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup in 2010 has eliminated them from the playoffs without needing overtime of Game 7.

One.

And that team is the mighty Arizona Coyotes.

Exactly four years to the day that the St. Louis Blues will try to become the second team to do it in Chicago on Saturday night at 8 p.m. ET, the Coyotes beat the Blackhawks 4-0 to eliminate Chicago in six games during the 2012 Stanley Cup playoffs.

The score looks like the Coyotes blew the Blackhawks out of the water to put them away, that they buried a great team before it had a chance to send the series to seven.
