DENVER — The stakes were high for the Blues as they faced the Avalanche on Friday night at Ball Arena.
Winless in their past four games but feeling a little better about how they were playing, the Blues were looking for some good vibes and, hand in hand with that, some points after four days off. The race for the fourth and final playoff spot in the West Division is getting tighter. The Blues need wins.
“I think it’s huge,” Blues coach Craig Berube said Friday morning. “I think this game could put us a good frame of mind to be honest with you. … These are big games this weekend against a real good opponent.”
