ROGERS' BLUES/AVS LAST CALL?: 4-0 NHL LAST TWO DAYS!
(NHL) St. Louis vs. Colorado,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -120.00 St. Louis (Away)
Result: Win
The loss of Binnington seems to have been a very big blow to the Blues, and their anger against Kadre certainly backfired. The Blues replacement goaltender, Husso, while excellent in the regular season, has not been able to show the same stuff in the play-offs. Kadre and the Avalanche embarrassed the Blues at home in game 4 and the Avalanche have been dominant on home ice this season. Should we count the Blues out today? The odds-makers would certainly suggest so. Call me contrarian, but I think that the Blues, with their backs to the wall, will make a game of it today. They bounced back in Game 2 after being badly outplayed in the opening game. With the very high odds available on the Av’s, the puck line looks very respectable. Look for a bounce-back from Husso and St Louis. Take the Blues on the puck line to keep this one close. St Louis + 1 1/2...
