Tale of the Tape...
Sun's and the
Province's pregame hype.
The Cannots are 8-1-1 in their last ten while the damned Blues are 3-5-2... The last time Vancouver lost in regulation was against these same Blues, only this time, St. Louis gets Roman Polak back from injury. One can only hope that Halak's recent struggles will continue, but somehow, I doubt it. St. Louis always seems to play Vancouver tough and I expect an even grittier game than last time. If Luongo allows a weak goal early, and it seems he allows at least one bad goal per game in the last few games, then it will be an uphill climb from there on in... If Kesler continues his red-hot play, and Vancouver gets on the board first, then I like Vancouver's chances. But Vancouver is due for a bit of a stumble and my guess is tonight is when it happens.
3-2 St. Louis...
