I just don't see how the Stars can hang with you guys. I predict Blues in 6, but will not be shocked if the Blues end it in 5. |

Ek hits on a key point
If the blues play like they won their cup on Monday and show up lazy and uninspired
Stars take this series easily
If the bleus show up with the same intensity and effort as the Chicago Series it will be a good thing for them IMO |

Figures. Ek jumping in front of me with his blog He must not have liked my tweet that said he would have realized something he posted a lot earlier if he was following my twitter.
If the Blues play like any game but game 6, the Blues take the series in 5 or 6 at the most. If they play like games 5 or 7, it could easily be a sweep. If they play some of the games like game 6, all bets are off and they could easily lose the series. |

Hopefully they are not reading the press clippings
I have seen ONE person in the media pick the stars
I just don't see the series being that one sided
Games are going to be close and could go either way like the Hawks series |

There was a home/away series between these teams and the Blues destroyed the Stars at home frustrating the hell out of them once again.
Then the next night they played with complacentcy and lost. But also the Blues were short handed and Hitch leaned heavily on a few players and they played tired the next day.
The Blues need to be less concerned about being caught on the ice in the second. They give possession away in the second periods with an over emphasis on not being caught on the ice for an extended period of time. So in order not to get a tired group caught on an icing they end up savrificing much more of the play for the period.
Simpe fix.
Stay away from the box, frustrate Jamie Benn, do not get frustrated by Rousell, and forecheck and attack the blue paint and you can beat Dallas. Also watch the gaps, must slow them down in the neutral zone. |

Take the body on Jamie Benn every time you can. Take him to the box as often as you can.

A bad day to be Bruce Boudreau. |

Interesting BB info.
7 of his 8 playoffs have ended in game 7 losses (one time he was swept)
He is 1-7 in seven game playoff series.
He is 2-7 in playoff series of 6 or more games.
This would suggest he continually loses the close series. This may be even more true as his team was the higher seed in every one of these series.
He is 3-1 in series of 5 games or less (perhaps talent decide these more than coaching?)

Winning percentages. I think I may try and compile more of these later. Need to do Scotty B as a reference point.
Q - 56% games, 62% series
Hitch - 52% games, 56% series
Sutter - 53% game, 59%
Babcock - 57% games, 63% series
BB - 51% games, 39% series |

Seguin isn't even skating yet. When he comes back, I doubt he will be 100%.
Benn scares me though. |

Just have Elliott position his glove in the top corner, that should stop most of his shots. |

My wife walked by the TV last night and exclaimed, "Is that guy a member of the Russian Communist Party?!"
He does kind of look like Gorbachev without the wine stain on his melon... |

Good luck to you guys. Have been reading comments from Hitch, really hate to root against him and Otter. Old Dallas fingerprints all over STL.
Blues should win this series, but I don't think it'll be easy. I still pick the Stars in 7, but I'd never pick the Stars to lose. Alot of things will have to go right for the Stars to move on. If they do I think they're as good as any other team still standing.

Yeah, they just need to hold him and Benn off the score sheet as much as possible. Luckily for the Blues, Seguin will not be a factor in this series. |

You too.
Hopefully you hang around for some debate/discussion. Good fan interaction can add to the fun. |

Bad play by Bouwmeester getting back. He goes to the man already covered by Petro rather than covering the slot. Ugh. |
