ST. LOUIS – The St. Louis Blues face a crucial Game Three against the Winnipeg Jets at the Enterprise Center Thursday night, hoping to turn the tide in their playoff series after falling behind 2-0.
The Blues were competitive in the first two games of the series in Winnipeg, leading in the third period of Game One and tied in the third period of Game Two, but ultimately lost both games.
Blues CEO Chris Zimmerman expressed excitement about returning to the playoffs, emphasizing the importance of playoff games for the team and the fans.
“It’s fantastic to be back in the playoffs. Quite honestly, it’s what our whole year is about is getting ourselves to the playoffs and giving ourselves or our team a chance to play for the Cup,” Zimmerman said. “A couple of years out, you get a little hungrier and you remember how fantastic the NHL Stanley Cup playoffs are as we get going in round one.”
The Winnipeg Jets have proven to be formidable opponents, winning the President’s Trophy for the best regular season record in the NHL. Despite the Blues’ strong efforts, they lost 5-3 in Game One and 2-1 in Game Two.
