Vancouver has one of the most dramatic episodes ever. At first, it led the series with a score of 2:0, after which it lost two fights in a row and in the previous meeting it snatched a victory with a score of 4:3, having made a real comeback. Before the equator of the match, Travis Green’s team was 1:3 inferior, but then joined the game and played the end of the second period flawlessly, scoring three goals. We emphasize that Tyler Mott scored the first and last goals in that fight and Jakob Markstr?m had almost the best game in the playoffs, reflecting 36 shots. Now the psychological advantage in the sixth meeting will clearly be on the side of the Canucks and they need to use it wisely. We emphasize that constant pressure from the team helps the Blues to make mistakes.
At the moment, Kansas City leads the Western Conference, while being one point ahead of Minnesota, so one can only imagine what an intense face-to-face meeting awaits us. Peter Vermes’ team took first place in Group D and confidently qualified for the playoffs. They pinned great hopes on the team, especially after the victory over Vancouver (1-0), but in the quarterfinals the club was weaker than Philadelphia (1-3). Sporting aims to keep the bar high and is clearly not ready to give up the lead, so the confrontation with United promises to be interesting and it will be interesting to see in what form the opponents will approach the fight.
