The St. Louis Blues took on the Chicago Blackhawks for the final time in 2018-19. Going into the game, we tried telling ourselves all those early season games turned out the way they did because the Blues were not themselves.
However, through the first period, the Blues looked a lot like they did in those early season matchups. St. Louis also made the Blackhawks look good by turning the puck over and setting up their stretch passes.
St. Louis was doing a great job of entering the zone. They had a lot of good pressure, but it amounted to nothing.
