How Will The Olympics Effect The Blues?

[Sum1]

Obviously, a lot of the Blues players have had great Olympic experiences this year. Oshie, Backes, Steen, and Berglund come to mind...also, Shattenkirk, Boumeester, and Petro all are their typical selves on the defensive side.

Tarsenko didn't have much impact...and Halak had a rough go.

I think my biggest concern is Halak as he tends to play as his confidence goes. He has bounced back from poor outings in the past so hopefully he gets back in the Blue sweater and is lights out.

THoughts?

A lot of times the players who participated come back and play very well. The rest of the guys many times are out of sync from the long break. If the Kings bring this scoring back with them, then lookout.

Yeah, I've got a lot of respect for the Kings...it's nice to be cheering for Jonathon Quick for once rather than dreading seeing him!
