With that being said, we now have our first confirmed matchup for this year's Stanley Cup Playoffs, as the Minnesota Wild will face the St. Louis Blues in the first round.
That is going a hell of a series. The Blues got the advantage during the regular season with 3 wins in 3 games against the Wild. Craig Berube's players also have a big advantage in the special teams category, and we know how important it is to have a good power play and a good penalty kill during the playoffs.
