Powershift posted:I'm guessing nobody ever expected hockey to be played in St Louis in June so the arena was fully booked. nothing's booked at Enterprise for a while, and in all likelihood Boston had also blocked out dates for the Cs playoff run which welp. also the Blues just replaced the whole ice plant this year as part of renovations, so the ice should be good even if it gets into the hot-and-humid conditions we're used to here in the summer months.

They set the dates based on if the WCF went to 7.

I never thought I would live long eough to see the Bruins be the lesser evil in a SCF but here we are. Still refuse to cheer for them and instead will just hold steady with gently caress the Blues Forever.

I live right in the middle of the beating heart of St. Louis and most of the energy is: "We're gonna lose but we made it this far." "gently caress Adam Oates."

Am I like the only one that's actually giving the (gently caress the) Blues a decent/good chance to win this? I feel like everyone's picking Bruins to win and Patrick Maroon's only hat trick ever was against the Bruins OH GOD WE'RE DOOMED hah at least I don't live in St Louis phew

I feel like everyone's picking Bruins to win and They're definitely underdogs but the way they've been playing lately I wouldn't count them out by any means. Like the broons, their power play is also fantastic and if Binnington keeps his head about himself they definitely have a chance. They're going to need a few things to bounce their way but this has already been a weird rear end playoffs so...

It got better in the Sharks series though. I haven’t watched the Bruins, but the Blues penalty kill hasn’t been great, so if they have a great power play that worries me.

I feel like everyone's picking Bruins to win and I feel like the Bruins are just a better version of the Blues, and Rask has looked real good the past two rounds. But it's probably close enough that you should be sweating

Bruins are running at 34% on the power play through the postseason. That's inflated by their series against Carolina but they were at like 28% before that series. You really do not want to put them on the powerplay.

They also allowed the most short handed goal the entire session, and tried their damnedest to cough up a few more in the first round - thankfully Tuukka bailed them straight the gently caress out and hope that's sustainable
