When there are two fairly evenly matched teams going to head-to-head against one another, it seems almost inevitable that a winner won’t be determined until the last possible game.
That’s how it will be for the Dallas Stars and the St. Louis Blues in Round 2 of the 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs.
Both teams have looked dominant at times and pedestrian at others. They’ve played with desperation and they’ve experienced highs and lows on the road and at home, both. While home ice would seem to be an advantage for the Blues in Game 7, Dallas players and coaches seem to be confident they can go in and take a win in a raucous atmosphere.
