Dissapointing losses in San Jose and LA. The team showed a real lack of toughness and heart, in those games. In San Jose, it was matter of not showihng up to play. I guess they figured the Sharks would see that 5 game winning streak and just lay down for them. Ooops, not so much. You actually have show up and play all 60 mins of the game. Spotting any team a 4 goal lead is relatively certain loss.
In LA the Blues showed what got them knocked out of the last two playoffs. The Kings just owned them and all but one or two Blues seem to be fine with that. They were out-hit 31 to 52. If this team doesn't learn to play that kind of grind-it-out hockey, it will be another bump from the plyoffs. A 100+ point regular season means nothing, if you don't have the heart and soul needed for playoff hocky. Let's hope the Blues use these losses as a barometer of what they need to do to be a Cup contender.
Let's hope they can overcome the lack of leadership, in their ranks...
