The St. Louis Blues always seem to find a way to make things more difficult than they need to be. They found a way to not do this in Game 6 of the Western Conference Final and now they have the chance to play for the holy grail of hockey.
Fans were chomping at the bit all day long, wondering how this game was going to go. Everything seemed to be lining up for a Blues victory, but you just never know with these things or this team.
St. Louis had the advantage. They were playing at home, up 3-2 in the series and San Jose was without three of their key players.
