The Jets are on the cusp of elimination and if the Jets end up losing this game they would join the list of other high ranking seeds that have fallen to the lower rank teams this playoff year. However, the Jets are a team that has kept everything close in the playoff battle and for some reason has been falling short as the games are coming to a close. The Blues for their part were not projected to do much in the playoffs after the almost horrible regular season they had, but now the Blues are actually looking like they could pull off the unexpected and that is to hold a lead in the playoffs and potentially eliminate the other half of the Western Conference finalist from last year in the Jets. The fifth game of the series saw the Blues take the 3-2 victory in the game. However, it was a very physical game and one the Blues had to rally back from the 2-0 deficit to get the win. If the Jets had been able to close out the game, they could be the team that is up in the series.
In the game the Blues took 29 shots and the Jets ended up taking a total of 31 shots. The Blues were not that physical of a team with only 14 hits in the game, but the Jets had 24 hits in the game. The Jets were also better on the draw with 28 wins versus the Blues 27. The Jets were not penalized as much in the game with only 2 penalty minutes versus the Blues with 6 minutes in the box.
