Soon, we’ll enter the NHL postseason. That magical time of year when you’re either screaming at your team, curled up in a ball in a dark room, or screaming for your team. There’s really no other option for hardcore fans.

With St. Louis in the second place in the Western Conference and first in the Central Division at 97 points at the time of writing, barring some horrendous misfortune the Blues will most likely see a seat in the playoffs. They are one of the top five team in the often-lauded Western Conference, and have been for several years.

Despite their regular-season success, it’s been two years since they even made it out of the first round, and three years since they lost to anyone but the Blackhawks or Kings in the postseason. The Blues have put together a great team this year and are counting on them to bring them to the post and beyond.

While the playoffs are a great show they’re not the ultimate goal; a Cup is. And as the Blues continue down their road to the Finals, they’re relying on a small number of players to be there for them.

But who?
