Opposite Day! Blues vs. Stars Round 2 Game 5 Recap

St. Louis Blues have a knack for losing games after winning big during the playoffs. According to Tom Timmermann:

Since 2000, Blues record in playoff games after winning one by 5 or more: 2-8.

Which put the Blues in the position they were in today after losing Thursday night 3-2. They were playing in Dallas with a series tied at two games a piece. But today was "Opposite Day." Instead of playing the usual miserable 2nd period, the Blues scored two goals and left the ice after 60 minutes up 3-1.
