For the second time in this second round series the Blues once again find themselves trailing the Predators. This is also exactly two more times than the Blues ever trailed the Minnesota Wild in the first round so it is understandable that Blues fans are somewhat less than thrilled with their favorite professional hockey club.
After an encouraging game two, in which the Blues appeared to be headed in the right direction, game three was a step backwards. Once again, despite having a better start to the game than their opponent, the Blues failed to get an early lead.
