Good luck with this one Sam and SJ, I'm quite tempted to lay the road juice on STL myself. There's no question STL is a better team than MIN over the long haul, the only thing that's making me hesitate is the insane numbers MIN is putting up on the PP: 24% overall, 28.6% at home and 29% in their last 5! MIN is second overall in the NHL in PP. What the hell kind of numbers are those for this team? I thought they were supposed to be expansion doormats!
I seriously doubt MIN can maintain that kind of PP production for too long, but it's still worth thinking about. STL PK has been less than stellar for a team with such talented blueliners as Pronger and McInnes.
If Brathwaite starts for STL I'm in. I really like this guy betwen the pipes. He has started the last two for STL so he may not go tonight. Any word on STL's starting goaler?
