The Winnipeg Jets vs. St. Louis Blues series has been complete chaos, and on Friday things were much the same as the Schenn’s and Jim Mintgomery were fired up.
The first round Stanley Cup Playoffs matchup between Central Division rivals St. Louis and Winnipeg has been absolute chaos thus far, and it’s only fitting that the series will be decided in Game 7 on Sunday after the Blues picked up a crucial win at home.
The Game 7 also marks NHL history, as it will be the first time in 22 years that brothers will face off in a Game 7, with Scott Niedermayer and his brother Rob the last to do so, but now, Brayden and Luke Schenn will do so this weekend.
Speaking of those two brothers, they were at the centre of a chaotic scene in Friday night’s Game 6, as the two were chirping at each other, all the while Head Coach Jim Montgomery was blasting the officials in an overwhelming scene on the ice.
This entire series thus far has been physical, dramatic and has had some of the best atmosphere’s in the NHL in Winnipeg and St. Louis, and now, 60 minutes is all that separates these two teams from a date with either Colorado or Dallas, whoever wins their Game 7 on Saturday.
With so much on the line for both teams, don’t be surprised to see every single player give their all to move on to the second round, and after the chaos unfolding involving the brothers on Friday, this should be another wild matchup to decide what has been a thrilling series thus far.
