The St. Louis Blues actually looked like the St. Louis Blues we remember from last season against Ottawa. While the team could not score in the first period, they still managed to look like a team in control the entire way. By the end, the Blues went all Emperor Palpatine on the Senators.
The Blues exploded in a rare showing of offensive prowess. Even last year when the team was cooking, they didn’t always have blowouts the likes of which we saw against Ottawa.
Six goals is nothing to sneeze at and the Blues did it with ruthless efficiency.
