The Blues blew a perfect chance to go up on the Winnipeg Jets on Tuesday night. They blew a good chance on Sunday, too, but that game was nearly irredeemable. The Blues looked like the team that the Jets took it to in the first half of the season - their defense was atrocious. The offense was there, sure - but it doesn’t matter if you score three goals when you let the Jets put up six on you.
The team promised to come out firing on Tuesday night, and they did. That first period was a demonstration of how the team is more than capable of playing, and how they hadn’t played until that point during the season.
