EDMONTON, Alberta _ Well, it had to happen sometime, right? On their 22nd day in the Edmonton bubble and in their seventh attempt to win a hockey game here, the St. Louis Blues were successful Sunday night.
Playing in their road whites, they defeated pesky Vancouver 3-2 at Rogers Place, trimming the Canucks' lead in the best-of-seven series to two games to one. Brayden Schenn scored the game winner on a breakaway with 4:54 left in OT. The group exhale by the Blues probably could be felt all the way back in St. Louis.
Perhaps they can make a series out of this after all. After Sunday's victory, the Blues need to win three of five games to keep playing. Still a daunting task, but obviously much more manageable than being down 3-0 in the series.
