It’s tough sledding when going up against an Avalanche.
Colorado’s players are playing better as a team than this Blues team is right now. The Blues are the Alydar to Colorado’s Affirmed, the Frazier to the Avs’ Ali. They sure put up a fight, but don’t often win.
But is Colorado a seven-game series better than St. Louis? Even after Wednesday’s 4-3 St. Louis loss, I don’t know if you can make that proclamation. Not yet, anyway. The Blues have now played the National Hockey League’s top team three times in April — and lost all three games by one goal each.
