Despite the Blues playing one of their best games of the series last night, the Preds emerged victorious in Game Four, winning the game 2-1 on goals by James Neal and Ryan Ellis. It was an extremely close hockey game, with the result riding on mere inches—Ellis saving the puck on the goal line, Neal flinging the puck just beyond Allen’s reach—but the Preds would not be denied their 3rd win of the series.
This was not an easy win. Like I said, the Blues played well. Well enough to win probably.
