The Nashville Predators are now off to the Western Conference Final for the first time in franchise history.
Members of the St. Louis Blues celebrate after scoring a goal against the Nashville Predators in Game Five of the Western Conference Second Round during the 2017 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs at the Scottrade Center on May 5, 2017 in St. Louis, Missouri. The Blues are aiming to be among that rare 10.3 percent of teams that survive and advance. Coach Mike Yeo said he'll cook up some line changes.
"They played well at home for their two games and we played at home for our two games and we've got a series", Boucher said. Our mindset is on tomorrow's game.
"At both ends of the ice, he does everything for us", coach Peter Laviolette said. Jaden Schwartz pounding in a rebound from a Colton Parayko shot for what would prove to be the game-winner just:35 into the period. Our ultimate goal is to win the Stanley Cup, and we've worked really hard to put ourselves in a good position and there's a lot of hockey left to be played.
The last time the Blues came back to win a series down 3-1 was in 1999.
Turris scored at 13:34, but the Senators had trouble generating sustained pressure against Lundqvist and were sloppy with the puck at times. They finished with three goals in three games at Bridgestone Arena in the series.
"Let's face the facts: You can't have success, and nobody has success in the playoffs, without a complete team effort, and goaltending is a big part of that", he said. In keeping with the adage, they just needed to get the first one-and they did. "We had too many opportunities to not capitalize". Minus his top two defencemen with Oscar Klefbom and Andrej Sekera out of the line-up, Talbot bounced back after choking away a three-goal lead in 3:16 during game five. Jaskin, along with fellow Czech Vladimir Sobotka and Patrik Berglund ended the game with the best possession numbers of any Blues line.
French reactions to Emmanuel Macron victory
Parisians lined the streets outside Mr Macron's campaign headquarters to see his motorcade whisk him away to the Louvre party. Designated conservative leader Francois Baroin says he will be in opposition to Macron in June legislative elections.
Alexander Steen has been ailing throughout the playoffs, unable to practice, and was a late scratch before Friday, opening the door for Dmitrij Jaskin to make his first appearance in this postseason.
"There were enough times where we were wondering if playoffs were even a possibility for us", Yeo said.
The Predators won their ninth straight playoff game in Nashville going back to last postseason. He returned to the lineup on Sunday in favor of Magnus Paajarvi, who was scratched.
The Rangers have scored the first goal in each game of the series.
"And then offensively, he's on a little bit of a roll right now".
"It's tough", Schwartz said of losing Steen. Obviously there's a line that you don't want to cross.
Rickard Rakell got one for the Ducks at 8:56. He matched that three times this season, with three points in three games (one goal, two assists) from December 30 through January 5, five points (three goals, two assists) from January 19-22 and another five points (three goals, two assists) from March 18-23. "I've got to get back to doing that, not being out there second-guessing at all".
