DENVER – There is hope for the St. Louis Blues after all. Remember – and how could you forget — they were outshot by about a million to one in Game 1 as Colorado put on a dazzling display of speed and skating.
But in the playoffs, what happens in one game frequently has no bearing on what happens in the next one. And somehow, the Blues found a way to escape the Mile High City with a 4-1 victory Thursday, tying the best-of-seven playoff series at one game apiece.
As was the case in Round 1, when the Blues split their first two game in St. Paul against the Minnesota Wild, they have negated Colorado’s home ice advantage. The next two games are in St. Louis, with Game 3 set for 7 p.m. (or thereabouts) Central at Enterprise Center on Saturday.
