ST. LOUIS – The Sharks and Blues are both coming off of difficult, drawn-out playoff series that were capped off by resounding, remarkable blowout wins in Game 7.
The Blues are apparently making at least one change ahead of Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals in St. Louis on Sunday, though, as coach Ken Hitchcock swapped centermen Jori Lehtera and Alex Steen on two of his scoring lines.
The Sharks? They’re keeping everything status quo, according to coach Pete DeBoer, who has shown to be a bit more forthcoming than some of his counterparts in the postseason.
