The St. Louis Blues ended up on top of the Minnesota Wild in six games. They now face a much tougher task with the Colorado Avalanche as the top seed of the Western Conference. Similar to what we did with the Nashville Predators series, let’s go over the Blues by position, starting off with the forwards and these projected lines.
Projected Forwards
Brayden Schenn—Ryan O’Reilly—David Perron
Pavel Buchnevic—Robert Thomas—Vladimir Tarasenko
Brandon Saad—Ivan Barbashev—Jordan Kyrou
Alexei Toropchenko—Tyler Bozak—Scott Perunovich
The Big Names
The main names that come to mind from that lineup are Ryan O’Reilly and Vladimir Tarasenko on the top two lines.
