"(We need to come) out there tonight being composed, knowing the last win of the series is really the hardest," David Perron said Thursday. "They're going to come at us, give us everything they've got. It's an exciting challenge for us. We know they're not going to go away easy."
The team isn't expected to make any lineup changes for Game 6, which means Jordan Binnington will make his third consecutive start and the club looks likely to use 11 forwards and seven defensemen once again.
"It's always the toughest game," Blues Head Coach Craig Berube said of elimination contests. "Minny is going to be ready, they're going to give us everything they've got. It's going to be the toughest game in the series. Controlling your emotions early in the game, with the crowd at home. Don't look too far ahead. Just one shift, do what you're supposed to do, keep your emotions in check as best you can."
Below is a projected lineup for Game 6 based on the pregame skate.
