Jets vs. Blues will be 'a really tough series' after St. Louis' remarkable resurgence

They've shared space in the Central Division for the past six seasons, yet on the surface there appears to be no obvious rancour, no boiling rivalry, between the Winnipeg Jets and St. Louis Blues.

These teams have yet to meet in the post-season since the Jets' return to the NHL in 2011. There's no major conflict borne of past playoff battles, such as the dislike that developed between the Jets and the Nashville Predators.

They certainly aren't linked geographically, like the Jets and the Minnesota Wild. Winnipeg fans don't regularly head down to Missouri, to Enterprise Center, to watch the teams collide, while fans of Vladimir Tarasenko and Alex Steen generally don't come north to flash their Blues attire at Bell MTS Place.
