ST. LOUIS — You knew sooner or later, the Blues would snap out of it. But after a series of pratfalls against the lesser lights of the NHL, who could have predicted it would come against the talented and touted New York Rangers?
Well, that’s what happened Thursday at Enterprise Center, on Grateful Dead night no less. With Pavel Buchnevich and Oskar Sundqvist out with injuries, and Logan Brown and Marco Scandella returning to the lineup after long absences, the Blues kept on truckin’ in their quest for a playoff berth.
Given the fact that they were winless in their previous four games (0-3-1), matching their longest losing streak of the season, perhaps it’s more accurate to say the Blues resumed truckin’ with a 6-2 victory.
