The Kings and Blues played a spirited series that included 6 1 goal games with 2 of them going to overtime. The series was either tied or a 1 goal differential for all but 5 minutes of game time. I am heartbroken and a little peeved at a few of our players, BUT we played the defending Stanley Cup Champions to a standstill and woulda, shoulda, coulda beaten them. WE DID NOT and now I am going to sit back and see what this KINGS team does the rest of the playoffs. I WILL SAY that if they return to the finals I will be a bit bipolar in my feelings. Glad because they were that good and Sad because we were almost right there!

 

 

Big games for both tonight. Probably bigger for you all!!

Exactly.

 

If you go to this website they simulate the results of everygame and currently have the Wings at a 72.7% chance to make it. The simulation is based on the teams with the better record beating the teams with the lesser record and it is weighted in favor of the home team.

Even though Edmonton is in 8th right now, their chance of making it is only 42%.

It is now down to 59.7% to make the playoffs..........................se what I did there?

Blues really need a LHD that can play a Pronger type game in front of the net. All 4 L.A. goals in the last game were within 5 - 10 feet of the goal. Leopold is not that guy at all but he helps the PP/PK a little. The Blues are still financially strapped to go out and get a stud on D without devastating the core of the team . I hate Detroit but I really envy the deep pockets of Mr. Pizza Pizza!! There is still talk of adding another D-man but who and for what I can not imagine.
