St. Louis Blues has to start accepting gifts that are given to them

The St. Louis Blues received a gift from the Pittsburgh Penguins yesterday afternoon when we learned that Tristan was facing Jarry. Despite Jarry's fighting, he had played well against the blues, but that's not the problem here.

Instead, it's more about how bad Jarry's played this season, which it couldn't do, how incredibly he was stagnated last year. Despite Jarry's story compared to the blues, it still sounded as if the penguins were begging this playoff contending team to lose one of them.

Unfortunately, they did not answer the call for the blues, even though they had registered 36 shots. This was a team that transferred the penguins 16 to 5 in the first period, but they could not benefit from getting something beyond the sick Jarry until Zack Boluc hit the power game halfway through the second framework.

St. Louis Blues has just made a bad goalkeeper look like a star

To defend the blues, when Tristan Jarry continues, he is on, and we have to recognize what we took through his six shutouts last season. Nevertheless, one would think that a netminder with just a percentage of 0.891 and 3.15 GAA folds into this game as soon as he had so many shots in the first frame.

Instead, it was exactly the opposite, and the blues looked again like a boring hockey team and an undeserved to make a playoff boost. If you stumble down from all Netminders against Tristan Jarry, what is useful if you face a goalkeeper again who earns a place in the NHL?

Yes, it was nice to see how the Blues -Power game played on a role when the start of Dylan Holloway added another in the third period for his 21st goal of the season. Apart from that, you can only say that Alexey Toropchenko made things interesting late.

Someone has to send the blues a memo via gift attempts

Yes, send the blues a memo that you do not return a gift if you are given around the same time when you want to end a playoff village. Overall, it was a miserable performance of the blues if you want my honest answer, and you didn't help yourself by allowing five goals – which must also be addressed.

Nevertheless, you will learn your lesson the next time you face a goalkeeper at AHL level or someone who is firmly anchored in No. 2/backup role. For a team that wants to switch on via a wild card, every game holds water from now on in mid -April, and this weight of the collective back of this team was much more difficult because they did not benefit.

Anyway, that is my follow-up, after I was sure that Arch City would celebrate a blues win and another step closer to a playoff base. Obviously I was wrong and the blues have to find out this thing on Saturday when they face a much harder team, the Minnesota wild.
