Western Conference Quarterfinals

 

David Backes scored with 9:04 left in overtime to give the Blues game one, 1-0.

 

I watched the second period of this one. The Blues played keep away most of the period, but could not get a shot on goal to save their life. Chicago got off 35 shots on goal, but only St. Louis goalie Brian Elliot blocked them all.

This should be a really good one!

Tried to embed a video of the moment Chicago nearly saved the series in the dying minutes of Game 7 last night. Just brutal. Hit both posts and settled right in the crease before a Blues player cleared it off the line.

 

Maybe when I get back to my office I can get it to work on a desktop.

 

St. Louis wins the game by a goal and the series by a game.

Had the option of fine dining or going to a bar so my work buddy from Chicago could watch his Hawks.

Should have done the fine dining.
