Blues at Stars Game Four GameDay Thread: Let’s take two
Jerome Miron-USA TODAY SportsFor the second series in a row, the Blues have the chance to clinch at home if they play their cards right. Those cards consist on a win tonight in Dallas, which is more than doable. Despite Ben Bishop’s strong play, the Blues won Monday night’s matchup by a goal in a game that demonstrated that sometimes, defense is optional and always, flopping is a bad idea.
This round can be over in five games, and regardless of who the Blues wind up facing the next round - Stars or Avalanche - they may need the bonus rest. Tightening up defensive awareness and getting some consistent secondary scoring would help, but so would getting some consistent top six scoring.
