I hope ROR guarantees a Blues series win again against the Avs

Deleted mine, think you were first anyway

 

[S E P H]

Gotta stay 'umble and respect our opponent. Blues are a great team that have amazing special teams.

 

[The Kingslayer]

this one wont last long. Blues are the better team everywhere. be shocked if it takes the Blues more than 3 games.

 

[redandyellowcametobe]

Avs in 6.

Cale personally scores on Dizee who jumps the glass to complain to the officials about a missed high stick.

 

[Mooserton]

Blues are much better than last year will be a tough one.

 

[Avsboy]

It's Blose, not Blues

 

[Balthazar]

Blues are much better than last year will be a tough one.

Much better offense, possibly worse defense.

They will also have a chip on their shoulder because of last year.

Stay away from the penalty box.

 

[Reparlana]

Blues in 4 - David Perron would have caused a reverse sweep last year.

Reality I'm going Avs in 6. Hard to imagine the boys will have had a full week off until the next game.

 

[forsbergavs32]

Anyone know how long Scandella and Krug are out?

 

[HockeyFan100]

Back-to-back sweeps would be glorious. But it will be Avs in 6.

 

[redandyellowcametobe]

Kadri better keep his head on a swivel

 

[JWK]

If we get out of the 2nd round, we can confidently say the Laurens were the curse

You might be on to something.

Now take it back.

[UncleRisto]

If we get out of the 2nd round, we can confidently say the Laurens were the curse

If we win with just Rachel, let it be known that I was right.

 

[PAZ]

Realistically the most probable outcome is Avs in 6, but my gut is Avs in 5. Think there will be a few very close games and blowout or two.


Either way, this Blues club is completely different than last year. Nowhere close to their cup caliber team, but their offensive depth is crazy. I feel pretty comfortable rolling out any of our defensive pairings, but once again our 3rd line is our biggest weakness. Still an improvement over last year, but that's the line Berube will try and focus in and feast on.

 

[MacKaRant]

Put Avs in 6. Not convinced that the Blues' goaltending or defense will hold up against stiffer competition. Plus, Makar really looks like he's determined to be the difference maker, or should I say, difference makar?

 

[El Travo]

So are we going to meet the Oilers' in the 3rd round to meet and defeat all the major components of our failed 2009 rebuild?

Avs in 5. Let's kill them.

 

[McMetal]

This is a better Blues team than the one we thrashed in round 1 last year. But not that much better. Avs in 6 this time, they'll give us a handful but Binnington and Husso are very human, and I'll take our defense over their offense.

 

[Reparlana]

So are we going to meet the Oilers' in the 3rd round to meet and defeat all the major components of our failed 2009 rebuild?

Avs in 5. Let's kill them.

Calgary is going to sweep Edmonton if they even manage to beat the kings. God help me if they win even 2 rounds.
