Having the easiest schedule to close out the season probably has a bigger part to play than anything else the Blues have going for them.
It is pretty easy to look at the Blues schedule and map out their likely wins and likely losses... Unless there are some surprising upsets, their season will likely come down to how the Canadiens and UHC games go.
Blackhawks - Win
Predators - Win
Canadiens - ???
@Predators - Win
@Avalanche - Loss
Red Wings - Win
Penguins - Win
Avalanche - Loss
@Jets - Loss
@Oilers - Loss
@Kraken - Win
@Utah - ???
Also, if they are walking into the Canadiens game on a 6 game win streak, you have to think that gives them some serious swagger. But the Canadiens have clawed their way into WC2 in the East and will be working hard to keep it.
