With the league’s spate of postponements wrapping up, at least in the West Division, things are returning to normal. The schedule shifting that saw the Blues play the Arizona Coyotes seven games in a row hopefully won’t be a necessity in the future.
Right now, the series has been a see-saw. The Blues handily took game one, fought but came up short for games two through four, and held on for games five and six. As frustrating as the Blues’ play has been, it’s important to keep in mind that they’ve gotten seven out of 12 points so far even without Marco Scandella, Colton Parayko, Tyler Bozak, Sammy Blais, and Robert Thomas.
