Does anybody else think the Blues are a live dog in this series to upset the Jets and their best record in the league? I mean is it superstitious or just believing that history usually repeats itself to wager money on the Blues. Pressure cracks pipes.
Hockey unlike any other sport players carry superstition and routines with them daily. Beards, pads, meals, spots on the bus, tape job….. all makes a difference 
Go Blues 
They are a live dog for sure. Big game Hellebuyck has been a joke in his career. He’s 4-9 his last 13 playoff games with a sub .870 save %. It’s been ugly. And on the flipside Binnington has had many huge games in the playoffs in his career. Fittingly these guys were both in net in the recent USA - CANADA battle.
I took the Blues to win the Cup at +5000 odds. I think they had the best chance of the long shots and if they beat WIN, then DAL/COL, then VGK/MIN/LAK/EDM, I dont think there is a team in the west (except maybe the caps) good enough to take them out in the cup. FLA is getting an unfair BS no travel advantage but that another argument. GO BLUES!
Great Future! Hope it comes through for ya
I agree. By the way, the Jets are a perfect 7-0 over the last three months after losing a game by more than a goal. Friday's 7-2 blowout loss was only the second time this season the Jets lost a game by more than three goals. Way back on November 16th, they finished a road trip against the Panthers in Florida and were blanked 5-0. Three days later, they hosted that same Florida team and defeated them 6-3. Take that for whatever it's worth.
I have to correct myself. The Jets lost 6-2 in Vancouver on March 18th. Two nights later they beat the Oilers in Edmonton in overtime.
The 6 goals allowed by Connor Hellebucyk on Friday night in Game 3 was the most goals he's allowed in a game this season. Ten times this season Hellebucyk started the next game after the team allowed at least 4 goals in a game also started by him. Hellebucyk responded with a 1.90 goals against average in those 10 games.
I wrote "after the team allowed" instead of "after Hellebucyk allowed" because in SEVEN of those 10 games the team pulled Hellebucyk and allowed an empty netter. Then he'd come back strong in the next game allowing 2, 0, 3, 2, 3, 2, 2, 1, 3, and 1 goals.
Just my opinion..throw all your numbers out the window.
The Stanley Cup playoffs is a completely different animal. Best of luck. Hard to doubt the best regular season record in the league!!!
But I do 
IMO if they lose just jump on them for the series to win 2 out of the last 3. History says they don't lose this series. Nothing is ever a guarantee but if the line is -170 or less I will be all over Jets if they lose today. Or maybe wait untilafter game 5. If they lose game 5 take them in the series . If they win bet game 6 and double up if they lose and take Jets game 7. JMO
