First Round Rematch Between the Blues and Kings

by Melissa Reidelberger on May 1, 2013

It’s the most wonderful time of the year.  NHL playoffs are upon us, and what better way to start them off than a rematch between last year’s second round match-up between the St. Louis Blues and the Los Angeles Kings?

The Kings put an early end to the Blues playoff hopes with a four game sweep during the second round in their amazing playoff appearance last season which would later result in a Stanley Cup. The Blues haven’t won a game against the Kings in their last nine meetings, dating back to February 3, 2012.  But don’t count the Blues out just yet. They once again have home-ice advantage and are coming off of six straight wins at Scottrade Center.  Oh and their goaltender Brian Elliott? He went 11-2 for the month of April, allowing one goal or less 10 times.

Rangers/Capitals First Round Preview

Last season, Brad Richards' goal in the closing seconds of Game 5 was the most memorable moment.

“Deja Vu all over again” – Yogi Berra

For the 4th time in the last FIVE seasons, the New York Rangers will face the Washington Capitals. It’s been a broken record, but most of the key participants are the same through the years. In 2009, the Rangers fell to the Capitals in seven games. Two seasons later, the Capitals finished off the Rangers in a tight five game series with a dominating Game 5 victory. Last season, the Rangers overcame the spunky Caps to win a dramatic series in seven games- that were really more like 8 if you included the Triple OT Game 3.  To say that these teams are familiar with each other is an understatement, but there are differences through the years as well.
