SAN JOSE — The way Ken Hitchcock sees it, lineup changes have been part of his team’s success to this point, and that’s not going to be any different just because the Blues are in the Western Conference final.
Coming off a 4-0 loss to the Sharks in Game 2 Tuesday night at home, Hitchcock promised to do what he has done all regular season and post-season long — come up with a different look in Game 3.
The Blues bench boss wouldn’t say exactly what those changes will be, but it looks like left winger Magnus Paajarvi could draw in to replace the pesky Steve Ott, while defenceman Robert Bortuzzo could sub in for Joel Edmundson.
