Both teams entered the post-season as underdogs against two teams considered to have all the makings of Stanley Cup contenders but the Blues and Stars defied the odds and moved on. Now who wins the wide open Central Division?
The key to the Blues first-round victory and the key moving forward is undoubtedly goaltender Jordan Binnington.
The Predators had no answer for the Stars top line and the Blues will need to find one if they are going to advance to the conference final.
The Stars couldnt have asked for more from their best line. Seguin, Benn and Radulov accounted for 18 points and all three averaged roughly 20 minutes of ice time per night. The Stars top players are responding at just the right time.
And lets not forget Ben Bishop who was outstanding against the Predators.

Binnington can be roughed up - the Stars need to do it early.

Lets do this! Been waiting a long time for it. It was the Blues who knocked us out of the playoffs last time we were in.

The Blues have a heavy defense. If the Stars can continue to get depth scoring from the second line then they should win this series in 6. Provided Bishop plays the way he did in the first series as well.

If they play like they played against the Preds, they will go deep in to the playoffs.
I think what changed in the playoffs from the regular season is the Stars started banging bodies. That top line with Benn, Seguin and Radulov (who wasn't at practice yesterday, by the way) is a big boy line. Especially when they add Oleksiak at D.
The Stars worked on some behind the net play yesterday at practice. It will be interesting to see them put that in to game. If so, it could provide some additional scoring opportunities.
Game 1 will set the tone for the series. If the Stars can get game 1, especially in relatively easy fashion, the Blues will be on their heels. Stars in 5, if they win game 1. If they lose Game 1, it may be a really long series.
Go Stars!!!!
