Why Ben Bishop should give Stars the slightest of edges over Blues heading into second-round matchup

Ben Bishop is on his way to St. Louis to atone for his sins.

That may seem an odd suggestion for a Vezina Trophy finalist for Dallas, but it's true in a Stars sort of way. Before his family upgraded and moved to Frisco, Bishop was a teenage goalie in suburban St. Louis and he recalls watching the 2001 playoffs -- Ken Hitchcock's final series as a Stars coach (in either tenure) -- from the other side.

"I remember going to games and screaming 'Bel-four.' That was probably one of the best names for that chant. I think the Blues swept them," Bishop said.
