The St. Louis Blues knew they had to find a response in Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals. After having one of their worst games of the postseason in Game 1, the Blues had a great bounce-back effort.
St. Louis came out and found their game, not to use a cliche, early in the game. They were earning time in the offensive zone and finding the solid plays to make.
Due to that, they got the first goal of the night. St. Louis managed to turn a play that was almost broken into a score.
The Blues started getting a little loose toward the end of the first period, but they made that lead last the rest of the opening 20.
