Lighting the Lamp: Homecoming

If the spiritual theme of this glorious April afternoon is resurrection, then surely the St. Louis Blues qualify as an apt metaphor for what it means to return from the dead. On January 31, the Blues dropped a home game to the Winnipeg Jets, the fifth loss in their last six games. The 5-3 defeat dropped the Note to ninth place in the Western Conference as the Calgary Flames passed them in the standings for the second wild-card slot, the last for playoff contention. And Vancouver, Dallas and Winnipeg were all only one point behind at the time.
