Once again on the brink of elimination, the Blues will look to force their series to a decisive Game 7 this afternoon with their first win in Nashville in well over a calendar year. St. Louis was asleep at the wheel earlier in this best-of-seven but with a dominant one-goal win in Game 5, the Notes now look like a team that could actually pull off the comeback.
The Blues are 7-0 SU in their last 7 games as underdogs of +145 or more.
The Predators are 5-0 SU and have outscored the Blues 19-6 in their last 5 games in Nashville.
The Blues have outshot the Predators 51-37 in 5-on-5 play the last 2 games.
I don’t know whether it’s the Preds running out of steam or if it was just a lull but they did not look good in St. Lou and if it weren’t for Pekka Rinne, the Blues would’ve run away with Game 5. The Finnish netminder made several miraculous saves and gave his club a chance to close out the series on hostile ice. With the Blues’ offense rediscovering their form, he’ll have to be good again this afternoon if the Preds want to avoid another trip back to Missouri.
That said, Jake Allen hasn’t been so bad himself. He stopped 21 of the Preds’ 22 shots last contest and increased his postseason save percentage to .937. He has, however, earned just one career win at Bridgestone Arena and the Preds are 9-2 SU in their last 11 games there.
I had given up faith in the Notes after their Game 4 loss in Smashville but I’ve been reinspired by their play – and their value. They’ll be massive underdogs in Game 6 and that’s good enough for me to roll the dice...BLUES HAVE BEEN MAKING UNDERDOG BETTORS RICH.Blues ML
