I would guess Oshie/Backes/Jackman/Steen, maybe Berglund. I think those are the guys who've been around through Murray, Payne, and Hitch.

As tempting as it is to pile on the Blues, especially given their recent history of playoff disappointments, I do think Minnesota deserves a lot of credit. They played a great game of hockey as much as the Blues played an uninspired one. The Blues just have to take their game to another level because the Wild raised the bar.

It seems like he said the same thing on his forum just a week or two ago. Hopefully this is all a moot point anyway.

Glad to see Nashville got the W last night after the refs allowed a Blackhawks goal with too many men on the ice.

Oh, absolutely. That was "Win a Road Game" paint by numbers. Score early, forecheck, choke the middle of the ice... they were great.

I think Bernie has a better chance of winning a Pulitzer Prize than the Blues winning the Stanley Cup. I'm just being realistic.

Well, they look fast to start. At least they realized it's the playoffs now.

Jake looking really strong today. Tarasenko has been the game breaker, otherwise, pretty even effort between the two teams.
