The St. Louis Blues needed a big performance to put the sour taste left from their overtime loss in St. Paul, but the team had a bad habit of playing up or down to their opponent. Due to some unknown opponents, the Blues continued that trend against the Anaheim Ducks.
Lots of things were working against the Blues heading into this game. The Blues just have not been good at home, overall, and the road team had won 14 of the last 15 between the Blues and Ducks prior to the 50th game of the Blues season.
