My Prediction
St. Louis Blues by 2While Albert could remind you about how exciting it is to watch two real juggernauts like the St. Louis Blues and Detroit Red Wings clash on the ice, let's instead focus on the cold, hard numbers. Ah, I can feel a chill in the room already!
The mighty Red Wings have two top-shelf goalkeepers with a season save percentage over 91: Cam Talbot, a human wall on ice, and Petr Mrazek, a man who seems to think letting the puck rest in the net is a personal insult. Give him some space, puck!
For the Blues, Jordan Binnington with his consistent near 90 save % and Joel Hofer with his impressive 91.7% last month stat have been holding the backline. At times, it's like watching a Peacock strut terrific saves one after the other.
Oh, and let's chat about Detroit's top players, shall we? Patrick Kane, the sneaky sharpshooter, and Alex DeBrincat, a man whose skates are less skates, more wheels set to maximum overdrive! Albeit, their plus-minus stats could use some work. Imagine having such talent and still glowing red… shocking! Remember, this is last season info, folks.
And the Blues? They’re led by Robert Thomas, a man so skillful with the puck he makes assists like you make instant noodles, and Dylan Holloway, who's got a knack for lighting the lamp more than Thomas Edison. Yes, I enjoy a good history joke, folks.
Historically speaking, it’s a mixed bag when these two titans collide. There's been a general trade of blows, keeping all of us guessing. What fun!
Season-wise, the Blues barely outshine their Red Wings counterparts. It's like watching two kids arguing over who's taller when they're both the exact same height but for a single hair.
Recent form? The Wings have been inconsistent like my dieting routine but the Blues, oh the Blues, they have really been singing, haven't they? It’s a winning streak that makes the 90s Bulls go, 'Hey, nice job!'
After going through all this number crunching, I bet I'd win the bakesale's best pie chart. Here it is:
