“We Want the Cup!” The Blues tied the Stanley Cup Final series at two games apiece and sent it back to Boston for Game 5 on Thursday.
On the other side of Missouri, in St. Louis, they got them a world championship hockey contest going on. Flooding be damned (no pun!)
From Jim Thomas at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch:"If the Blues have shown one thing since late January, when they began their second-half sprint to the playoffs, it’s never, ever count them out.
So here they are again after Monday’s 4-2 triumph over Boston before 18,805 at Enterprise Center. Once again, it’s down to a best-of-three affair, with Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final on Thursday in Boston.
“Our team responds pretty well to things,” coach Craig Berube said. “They have all playoffs. We knew what we had to do tonight - the entire team. First of all, our discipline was a lot better. And second of all - (here he paused) - we were relentless tonight. We didn’t stop for 60 minutes. That’s how I looked at the game.”"
