I have to go with my gut and go with the Stars in 6.

 

I think they get under the Blues skin.

 

They are an opportunistic team.

 

I think Bishop will frustrate them and be the difference maker.

 

Or I couldn't be completely wrong and just have gas.

I also picked the Stars in 6, but Bishop has been inconsistent so far vs the Blues: terrific games followed by so-so performances. After game 5 I was sure Dallas would close the series at home, but they remained in the locker room, so here we go with a 7th game and everything is open, it will be 50-50...

Cant blame Bishop for last night.  Blues outplayed them something awful

3 shots in like 45 minutes. The Blues' domination was quite embarrassing, moreover in a 7th game. A Dallas win would have been one of the biggest steal in NHL history, but that was close to happen, having Radulov be able to adjust his one-timer instead of chasing flies with 1:30 remaining...

 

Game #6 was quite the same with a lesser extent. Seems that the Stars just ran out of gas after game #5. Benn was absolutely ordinary, playing heavily with no emotions and no urgency.

Schenn was pretty good though, he didn't show up on the score sheet but his line was really effective throughout the series. They created a pile or chances. He was really good along the wall and looked pretty good off the rush too. 

 

I'm not saying the trade is bad. I think it was a wake up call for him, and the Blues let him play center and let him play-he's responded by playing pretty well. 

 

I don't mind that nor do I mind  his team is doing well.

Too much talent and the Sharks or Avalanche are going to get the same lesson.  I do not believe either can hang with the Blues.  Boston is the only team that I think will be a true fight.  If they survive Carolina. I am going to pick Carolina to pull the upset in game one.  I think Boston might take them lightly at first and are not emotionally into it like Carolina yet
