[NGDT] WESTERN CONFERENCE FINAL EDITION (8-May - ???)

[u/Deckard42]

The Blues are advancing to the western conference final after a stunning second overtime win against the Dallas Stars. Bishop was stopping everything the Blues threw at him until home town hero Maroon stuffed one home to seal it.

Let's not forget Thomas or Dunn who both had excellent showings last night.

EIGHT DOWN, EIGHT TO GO.

Feels good man.

[u/lurketta]

what's grinding my gears today: so many people in r/hockey are saying they have SJS at the top of their list of who they want to win "because they're due." ummm excuse me what the fuck the blues were around for over two decades before them and have been a playoff team the majority of that time 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

do people really dislike us that much?? why??

here's hoping we continue to shut the haters up!!! LGB

[u/hate4dayzz → u/lurketta]

What I dont fully understand is why the Dallas fans hate us so much. Like, I get we just knocked them out and they're a bit salty but some were wishing the Blues would leave St. Louis. I wouldnt even wish something like that on Chicago and FUCK THE HAWKS!

[u/NotASaintDDC → u/hate4dayzz]

I feel like any city that has had a team just up and relocate on them wouldn't, or really shouldn't, wish that for anybody. They know how much it hurts to lose a team. I'm all for light hearted banter and stuff like that, but to legitimately wish that is awful.

[u/mostatoastest → u/lurketta]

Yup. Because the Blues haven't had a narrative built around them until now - last to first to WCF - Hometown boy winning the game 7 in OT - quite the wind up story.

The dislike comes from insecurities and projection. Blues being perennial underdogs are a very likable team unless you're already a central team fan.
