On Friday, the St. Louis Blues will look to stave off elimination when they host the Winnipeg Jets for Game 6 of their first-round Stanley Cup playoff series.
The Blues have defended home ice, picking up big wins in games three (April 24) and four (Sunday) to send the series back to Winnipeg tied 2-2. With a chance to tie things up at 3-3 and force a Game 7 on the road, the stakes couldn’t be higher for St. Louis.
This season, the team is 24-14-3 at home, while Winnipeg is 26-15-0 on the road.
