Thornton spoke to the media before DeBoer revealed the severity of the injury, and Thornton downplayed the problem, calling it "the normal stuff that hockey players deal with". The Oilers then won in overtime.
Jake Allen made 34 saves for the Blues, who led 2-0 and 3-1 in Game 5 before a furious rally by Minnesota to try to keep its season alive forced the extra frame. Sure, there are some no-brainer decisions, such as re-signing restricted free agents Melker Karlsson, Joonas Donskoi and Chris Tierney, but the bigger questions come in addressing what steps this roster needs to take in order to take a crowbar to the slowly closing window and pry that sucker open for a little while longer. The Blues will be playing Game 1 on their home ice against the Nashville Predators in the 2nd round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
McDavid has one goal against the Ducks this year, Draisaitl has six.
Magnus Paajarvi scored the OT victor as the Blues enacted some revenge for Mike Yeo, upsetting the Wild in 5 games.

Winning the Connor McDavid lottery two years ago was the key moment in the turnaround for an Edmonton Oilers team that had spent most of a decade at the bottom of the standings.
"Any time you can join the team back in practice, it definitely beats going on the ice and skating by yourself", Fowler said.
"Kass does a really good job of creating offence, he's really fast and he gets on the forecheck and Testy is a really smart hockey player. For me, being big and strong, it's about going to the net and hopefully good things happen".
The Oilers broke through 54 seconds into the second period when Leon Draisaitl converted a breakaway with a backhand-to-forehand move to tuck his first goal of the series between the legs of Jones. Derek Stepan scored into an empty net for the 3-1 final. "I'll go get it checked out today and go from there". It's weird for me to say because I feel like my first year was last year.
"Both of them are extremely important to get under contract, and we can start those discussions in the next little while". And in the Rangers' case, that means either the Ottawa Senators or Boston Bruins. Edmonton did not make any personnel changes and went with the same lines in Game 6 as in Game 5.
