The St. Louis Blues have enjoyed a Cinderella season thus far, making their way up the standings after coming into the new year in dead last place. Now they are one of two remaining teams, and the other is likely their toughest test yet.
The Big… Bad… Boston Bruins.
The Bruins use a balanced mixture of skill and grit to go along with stout defending and spectacular goaltending to find success on the ice, and they have emerged as the Cup favourites in many hockey fans and analysts eyes. They got off to a good start with a Game 1 victory, which apparently historically means that there’s a 77.2% likeliness that they win the series.
Don’t tell Vladimir Tarasenko, though. He doesn’t want to hear it.
Fair enough, stats don’t mean much to players most of the time. That clap back had a little extra snark on the side.
PUT SOME MUSTARD ON IT VLADDY.
