Here is the 2016 St. Louis Blues Qualifying Tournament in its entirety.

The Blues franchise now has had its third representative in three years as the 2nd-seeded ’80-’81 St. Louis Blues are their newest rep. Wayne Babych began his stellar series with a two-goal performance in a 5-3 win in Game 1. Meanwhile, defenseman Rick Lapointe registered three assists from the blueline. The 8th-seeded ’14-’15 St. Louis Blues notted the series up with a 3-2 win in Game 2. David Backes scored the lone goal in the third period to seal the win. Then, two unanswered goals in a span of two and a half minutes in the third period led the ’80-’81 Blues to a 3-2 win in Game 3. Brian Sutter accounted for two of the three goals in the win. The ’80-’81 Blues then opened up a 3-1 series lead with a 7-4 win in Game 4 as Babych scored a goal and added three assists while his linemate Jorgen Pettersson scored four times.

With their backs up against the wall down 3-1, the ’14-’15 Blues took Game’s 5 and 6, both by one goal. It was a balanced effort in their 5-4 Game 5 win as only Jori Lehtera and defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk posted more than one point. Shattenkirk then scored the eventual game-winner in their 2-1 win in Game 6 to force a Game 7. The ’80-’81 Blues blew the doors off the ’14-’15 Blues in the second period of Game 7 with six unanswered goals, including two from Babych. They led 7-1 after two periods, but the ’14-’15 Blues scored three times in the first nine and a half minutes of the third to make it a 7-4 game. However, they would only be able to add one more in the final minute to make it a 7-5 final. Babych finished with four points as he added two assists to his two goals while six of his teammates also posted multi-point games.
