Kings 3, Blues 2

Keith Tkachuk, the wily veteran, staked out his position in front of the net and knocked a rebound past Bernier to pull the Blues within one 2:38 into the third period. This is the time to watch Bernier. The pressure is about to get high, more pressure than he faced in the first game.

Actually, it is the rest of the team that is getting rattled ... Bernier isn't getting any help.

It was Blake's fault, not Bernier...Blake had his back to Tkachuk...

This game was lost because of Blake's effort.
