Blues have gone 5-7-2 over the last 14 games and face the Kings, Coyotes, Sharks, and Ducks to round out this road trip. There is no question they need to play better to make the playoffs, but how much better? Assuming that the 8th seed will need around 56 pts (ratio of average # of pts 8th seed to make playoffs over last ten years, 58% of total points) the Blues need to get 32 out of the final 54 points available. Will the Blues be able to turn things around? My heart says yes, but the window is quickly closing as this team desperately needs points on this road trip and they won't be easy to get.
