BLUES TAKE GAME 1 IN 3OT

The 2 seeded Blues and the 3 seeded Blackhawks squared off in game one of their Divisional Semifinal series last night. And it was one of, if not the best hockey game I have ever watched. It started with a  minute and 45 seconds to play in the final period, down 3-2 and Blues wing Jaden Schwartz makes a beautiful goal from the right side and we would go to overtime. After 2, 20 minute periods of overtime we were still tied at 3. So we went to triple overtime. Now remember, in hockey it is sudden death. Under 30 seconds into the 3rd period, David Backes gets a rebounds off a missed Blues shot passes it Steve Ott, who no looks a little tap to St. Louis teammate Alexander Steen who scores!!!! BLUES WIN!! BLUES WIN!!! And St. Louis takes a 1-0 lead going in to game two (of seven).
