GDT Game 5: 4/25/14 > Blues vs Hawks > 7:00 PM > FSMW/NBCSN

[Kerfuffle]

I think it'll be another close game decided by one goal. The previous 4 games were so I don't see this one being any different. Both teams are really good defensively.

It's really...well...annoying the bi-polarness of fans.

We have a great regular season and Blues fans say we have a great shot at the cup.
We finish the season on a losing streak and Blues fans say we have no shot at the cup.
We win the first two at home (extremely close games), Blues fans say our team is amazing.
We lose the next two in Chicago (extremely close games), Blues fans say our team sucks and we're going to lose the series and how this is last year all over again.

- The series is tied...and each game could have gone either way. The teams have played about dead even and being 2-2 is probably where the series should be. A lot of Blues fans act like we're down 3-1 in the series.
- We STILL have home ice advantage with 2 of the next 3 here.
- The Hawks haven't won here all season.
- If we win this game Blues fans will say the series is ours.
- If we lose this game Blues fans will say the series is over.

Chicago has the momentum, but momentum is something that has to be maintained and can be stolen back quite quickly.
If we were going to Chicago for game #5 with 2 of the next 3 in Chicago, I'd be concerned about how harfd it would be for the Blues to grab back the momentum. But we're not going to Chicago. We're at home...and I think that is significant with how close this series has been.

It's time for Miller to have a stellar game from start to finish. A 4-1 victory would be nice.

Just win the home games and we'll be fine. That is what this team worked for all season.

The most bipolar fans in all of sports. That's why I'm not doing flashchat anymore, half of the people only show up when we are losing to complain instead of being there the 52+2 games we've won and having a good time, it's negativity central.

I don't understand why you're here.

It's hard to not be negative given our history of non-success in the playoffs. Great regular season team for sure, but we're folding like cheap tent. This thing could have just as easily been over if we'd been able to pot any goals in game 3 and held a lead in game 4. And yeah, I know it could just as easily be over the other way if Chicago had held a lead in game 1 and 2, but I just have zero confidence in this team right now. Hopefully they prove me wrong.

I like hockey - I participate in a lot of NHL boards. Is there a problem?

There's no problem. We've always been open to fans from other teams as long as they're sensible and not being dick trolls. Don't worry about KK.

just WIN dammit!

Kerfluffy is fine. Traffic on the boards and opposing views are good things.

I'm not optimistic about this series anymore, but I will just /shrug and wait to see which team shows up when the puck drops.

Clearly we don't want to lose this one.

Agreed. He's been friendly and non-trollish. More the merrier IMO.

I am still optimistic about the series though. I think Miller is going to stand on his head tonight and we'll get 3 or 4. I know the obvious prediction is a 1 goal game, but I have a feeling we're gonna blow em out by 2 or 3 lol.

They haven't beaten us in STL even once this year. Let's keep it that way.

To be fair, if people are there, they can just look across the street and watch the game.

Actually, it's been mostly positive this postseason. Mostly.
