Not to mention the Wild don't have a player like ROR. Defensive beast.
But St. Louis doesn't have a player like ANTOINE ROUSSEL.

You would think that all the teams that clawed their way in the play-ins ,would have the advantage right off the bat...?....They should have the momentum going their way.

I think so. If the Canucks lose this series in 5, then i think the one game they win is the first game. They'll be pumped up here ... but when the Blues wake up and find their emotion... we're gona have a REAL uphill battle lol

Should be fun Stl plays long series and do not seem to blow out other teams. Issue is their goalie, hope he is off. Nice to see Allen playing last game maybe means Binny is not playing well?

He had a .947 vs the Avs and .842 vs the Knights.

Gonna be a tough series. Should be a good one though.

Anyone have an idea of when the first game will be?

This may be a far out feeling but I actually like our teams makeup. It genuinely feels like this core is built for playoff hockey. We are no longer soft. We have a decent top 6 (minus eriksson, do we know when TT will be back?). We have speed, I’d say faster than Blues. We have grit. We can score, we can hit, and we have a goalie who can steal games (has all season long).

Blues clearly have the experience and more weapons (and better goalie) than wild... it will be a tough fought series but not a write off like some of you are making it out to be.

Canucks have the blues beat in young talent.

ROR is 30
Tarasenko is 28
Steen is 36

Thomas is their only young guy.
Does Steen even count as "talent" at this point?

But if you use Perron or Schenn instead they're not youngsters either.

You know what? Bring it on :box:

Hate everything about Dallas and their schmuck players and management. Would hate for our season to end with them.

Lets go out in a blaze of glory versus the champs! :hockey:

I'm just praying his skating is well enough to avoid a monster hit - he's so tiny that it wouldn't be good.
You don’t think Quinn wasn’t targeted by Minny? Hughes is the best U 23 D man in the league, and he will carry us to victory over the Blues.

I mean that canucks have the younger core. And it is not even close.

Current canucks reminds me of the Quebec Nordiques from early 90s.
