[CDSF] Minnesota Wild (C2) vs. St. Louis Blues (C3) | Blues win series 4-2

If Foligno isn’t playing the Wild don’t stand a chance.

This is another series I could see going to seven games.

 

Wild in 7.

[Bruce Boudreau]

Don't care for either team but it is a hard hitting series like Bruins vs Caps was in the first round I will watch a few games...

He's injured?  

 

Blues have dominated the Wild over the last 10 games.  I'm hoping that the Blues mop the floor with them.

He took a really bad knee on knee trying to avoid a hit from Macdermid in the last game of the season and had to leave the game. The report today says he will play.

Everything says the Wild should clean up here but St Louis won the season series 3-0 which is always super important.

 

That being said, going to be a gritty dog fight and I think Kaprizov is going to expose the Blues' defence.

 

Wild in 7 though.

This is a hard one to predict. I'm going to go with the Blues in 7 - though I can totally see a situation where the Wild take it.

[Beary Sweet]

Must watch imo. Kaprizov, Fiala, Boldy, Zuccarello vs Tarasenko, Thomas, Schenn, O’Reilly. Addition of Fleury has had a ripple effect on the Wild. He will be a x-factor in this series. Wild in 7

I think the Wild are Faulked this round, Blues in 6

Penalty shot for the Blues while shorthanded!

And Fleury makes a nice vintage save.

Yup, nice to see the commentators making the same reference as well.

Fleury gives up a juicy rebound and Perron takes advantage of it.

[-Vintage Canuck-]

Similar to the Lightning-Leafs game, the refs sure are calling everything in this one.

When was the last time MAF didn’t choke in the playoffs?  It’s more than a decade, no?  

Minny will win this series, but MAF won’t be in goal.

I'm not sure if the Wild would be willing to rotate goalies each game unless Fleury really struggles. Then I could see Talbot getting the start.

[DeNiro]

The Wild going out early would make me happy.

The Wild just can’t seem to beat Husso. So many great scoring opportunities.
