Win two and advance; lose two and go home. All along, coach Craig Berube and the Blues expected a long playoff series — and here we are. “They’re a great team, they really are,” Berube said of the Wild. “They’re hard to play against. . . . We’re a good team, too, so here we are. Tied.” Getting two goals each from Jordan Kyrou and David Perron, and strong goaltending with Jordan Binnington in the net, the Blues defeated Minnesota 5-2 Sunday before a boisterous sellout crowd of 18,096 at Enterprise Center. The series, knotted at two games each, moves to St. Paul, Minn., for Game 5 on Tuesday night. For the Blues, the story of the day was as much about the path they took as the final result. It’s not true that Berube pulled out names from a hat to come up with his lineup. It just seemed that way. OK, totally understandable on defense where the Blues were missing Robert Bortuzzo, Torey Krug and Nick Leddy because of injury. But among the Blues’ top three lines at forward, it was strange to see: • Brayden Schenn-Ryan O’Reilly-Perron together for only the sixth time overall this season and the first time since March 12.
