There's not really a team that scares me for the Blues to play, I think the only opponents that come close are Tampa but even so we shut them out recently and showed we can play with them, and obviously if we meet them in the playoffs things have gone extremely well to that point.
Nothing about playing Tampa scares me. We could lose 4 straight games 8-0 and I would be beyond pleased with the season. I'm over 30 years old and have never seen the Blues play in the Final. I'd wager decent money that 95% of this board has never witnessed a Stanley Cup Final game involving the Blues. I'll obsessively break down teams in the West and analyze potential roads to the Final, but after that it is house money. Being in the building for a Blues Cup win is #1 my bucket list of things that are out of my control. Being in the building for any Cup Final game involving the Blues is #2.
No one in the West truly scares me. We're certainly not favorites against every team, but I think beating any of them is realistic.
