So as you can see, pretty even across the board, neither team really has the advantage, though the Blues did win the season series. Not sure why we're seen as such an under dog, but hey, less pressure on us

Should be a good series. The Blues do fly a bit under the radar because they are more of a CPHL SIM team than a collection of the NHL players due for good ratings increase type of team.

Funny, the only respect teams like that get are in the win column.

I'd be shocked if this game doesnt go to 7 games, it should be a coin toss, hopefully we are on the winning side!
