I give the St. Louis Blues credit for one thing this season - you truly have no clue what to expect from them. They had two absolute stinkers against the Boston Bruins and then the Nashville Predators, just to turn around and take care of business against the Chicago Blackhawks.
For once, the Blues came to play from the opening bell. They weren't world beaters, but they at least looked prepared to start well.
They also took the lead, which has been a good and bad thing, but this team must play from ahead. Logan Mailloux continued his resurgence with his first goal in a Blues uniform at 3:41.
