00:00I want to talk about a game that ended up 7-2 last night.
00:03That was the St. Louis Blues getting within 2-1 now of the series with the Winnipeg Jets.
00:08You look at the seven goals by the Blues, like, sometimes you think it would be seven goals for a series that Hellebuck would be able to give up.
00:13The Blues were explosive on the ice last night.
00:16What gave? And also, there was a hat trick last night that maybe we didn't expect.
00:22Yeah, Pavlo Buchnevich, their big boys showed up last night.
00:25And sometimes, you know, you hear, you know, across all sports, the NBA as well, like, you're not out of it until you lose on home ice.
00:32And Winnipeg is one of the toughest places to play hockey, especially a playoff game with the whiteout.
00:37The fans were rolling. The Jets were throwing their body around.
00:40They got goaltending from Connor Hellebuck, and they took care of home ice.
00:43The series shifts to St. Louis. It's another tough place to play hockey.
00:46They have some guys on that squad that have won the Stanley Cup a few years ago.
00:50Jordan Bennington, one of those players, so he was sharp to start.
00:53And the Blues just came out firing, right?
00:55They got a couple quick goals early on in that game.
00:57As I mentioned, their big boys showed up.
00:59Robert Thomas has been fantastic for them since the Four Nations face-off near the end of February.
01:03It was great. Buchnevich scored.
01:05And they have a lot of sandpaper as well.
01:07So they can go toe-to-toe with the Jets in terms of that physical play that Winnipeg likes to bring to the table.
01:12So they are right back into this series.
01:14That's what I was alluding to earlier with some of the Canadian teams having home ice tonight.
01:18But yeah, a good performance from St. Louis.
01:20That was one of my upset picks heading in to the Stanley Cup playoffs.
01:24I still believe that they're really in this thing.
01:26They're going to have to win.
01:28Eventually, they're going to have to win a game in Winnipeg, guys.
01:30But if they can take care of home ice and get right back into this series.
01:34And then, if they have to win a game, they're going to be in the game in Winnipeg.
01:38And if they're going to win a game in Winnipeg, they're going to win a game.
01:42I'm wondering if they're going to win a game in Winnipeg, guys.
01:44So that's why you're going to have to win a game.
01:46I'm going to have to win a game.
