They looked like they were playing in triple overtime in the 2nd night of a Back to Back in the 3rd period of that game.
WTF was that all about? Had a nice break, plead 2 solid periods. Then in the 3rd period they simply didn't have any legs at all. They weren't even competing out there.
It was just bizarre.
That went from a game that could've had Winnipeg nervous to a game where I think the Jets come away knowing that the Blues simply can't play 60 quality minutes against them somehow. The 3rd period was THAT bad. And that PP early in the 3rd kinda gave it away -- Thomas made 2 or 3 really good passes and they were just exploding on sticks. They couldn't even handle a pass at that point. They had nothing at all.
You don't see is happen very often where a team just dies in the last 20 minutes like that . Sometimes they get out-skilled, sure -- but they simply had no legs.
