When it comes to the St. Louis Blues, nothing is easy. They make winning look as hard as drivers make merging onto the highway during rush hour traffic. If you ever wonder why Blues fans drink so much, look at the utter case of blue balls this team presents every single season.
When was the last time they swept a playoff series? 18 years ago, the Blues swept the Dallas Stars in the Conference Semifinals. In fact, they’ve only won a series 4-1 or better eleven times in franchise history.
The 2018-19 season is no different. After flatlining on New Year’s Day, the Blues stormed back into the race, nearly winning the division.
