OK. So, Blues vs. Canucks facts going into Game 3.
The Blues and Canucks have played eachother six times this year. The Canucks have wone 3, the Blues 2 and there was one tie. The Blues only won one of the regular season games, and that game took place in St. Louis. The Blues were 23-11-4-3 at home in the season, yet the Canucks were 23-10-7-1 on the road.
So it's hard to say which team is in favor right now as far as the location, the records and the history is concerned. For momentum, the Canucks would probably be favored considering they just won the last game. But then again, there's still the fact that the Blues are on home ice.
I guess it all really comes down to the players in this case. I still maintain that the Blues can win if Osgood can hold the Canucks to one goal or less, provided the Blues score against the Canucks goalie.
