the blues are missing norris candidate al macinnis after bertuzzi's monstrous hit 2 minutes into the last game... word is he'll probably be gone for the rest of the series with a seperated shoulder... stillman didn't skate saturday morning so he still might be doubtful for monday...
on our side, we got ruutu and ohlund back in the lineup, and ohlund was our number one guy in minutes... which means the blues lost their number one assist getter, in our "defenseman" brent sopel... thankfully ohlund's back to cover for that guy's sorry ass...
as for home ice advantage, the nucks admit they play a better game on the road, because they dont feel the need to put on a show for the fans....
looking back now, im glad the blues won 6-0 and not 2-1 or something close... it was a total wakeup call for our boys, and they responded...
now the series begins!
hey dave, i was out at a bar (in ontario) for the first wings game, and the place erupted when kariya scored that ot winner... ontario hates cujo, i hate the wings... looks like we have one thing in common to cheer for eh? |
