Oh, and the Yotes and Preds. So I figure you meant the playoffs haha. Of course.. didn't account for Winnipeg but that wouldn't be fair.
Depends what you're calling dominating... St. Louis has certainly been on the dominant side of their game despite not necessarily being on the dominant side of scoring (but still sneaking by).
Game 1 was extremely even
Game 2 the Blues had a fantastic first period and let it slip away for the rest of the game before sneaking back in at the last possible second
Game 3 they got shut out, there's nothing dominant to be taken from that
Game 4 has been all Blackhawks so far except for 2 minutes of the 2nd
And yet, we very well may be down 3-1 in a few minutes. As I said, mental mistakes. The Blues seemed to have a 10 minute long power play that helped them rally back in game 2. Giving up two goals in 90 seconds tonight. Etc.
What an absurd assessment.
In fact, this game 4 is the first time St. Louis has been the less dominant team.
