It appears the Caps are playing with more focus and determination. But on any given Monday. Hopefully the Knights will tie the series. Whoever wins tonight I believe will take the cup. But I’m from Chicago what do I know?

P.S. Coming Soon: a "Conglaturations" to either Las Vegas or San Jose for a huge choke. Hard for both teams to both choke in the same game. Entertaining, but it will be delicious, delicious tears for one city.

P.P.S. Conglaturations Las Vegas!!

Other than my team winning and Boston teams losing, nothing makes me happier than Canada continuing its Stanley Cup drought.

Boston accepts your thanks.

Now Some Team from Somewhere is trying to prevent the Godless Commies from claiming a part of the cup as well!

Colton Parayko and the Blues are playing for Laila Anderson

ST. LOUIS -- Laila Anderson pointed the microphone at St. Louis Blues forward Alexander Steen. He had done plenty of interviews after winning the Western Conference championship on home ice that night, but this one was clearly the most meaningful.

"So tell me, Alex, what emotions are going through your head?" said the 11-year-old, her cherubic face beaming under a Blues snow cap.

"Good question," he said. "It's very special to do this in this town, and to have you here was even extra special."

"Thank you. I appreciate that," she said, before continuing the postgame interview on behalf of a local NBC affiliate. She asked Steen about facing former Blues captain David Backes, now a member of the Boston Bruins team awaiting them in the Stanley Cup Final.

"I understand you guys are friends," Anderson said, "but you gotta get aggressive out there."

Steen smiled. "But we got you. Our lucky charm."

Back in January, almost no one expected the St. Louis Blues to be playing for the Stanley Cup, as they had the fewest points of any team in the league. But even if they turned their season around, the odds felt insurmountable for her and her family that Laila Anderson would be healthy enough to watch one of their playoff games, given her condition.

Anderson is battling hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, or HLH, a life-threatening immune disease. Only 15 other children in the world have been diagnosed with it. In some ways, her battle with the disease -- diagnosis, treatment, surgery and recovery -- has run on a timeline parallel to the Blues' own comeback this season.

Their journeys intersected in Game 3 of the Western Conference finals, when Laila's doctors cleared her to attend the playoff game. You've probably seen the video of her mother, Heather, surprising her with the news, creating a moment of tearful elation that went viral. They would attend Games 4 and 6, as well, celebrating with the team after the Blues advanced to the Final with a win over San Jose.

"I was instantly bawling. I can't believe we're here. And I can already taste that Stanley Cup," Laila said on Fox Sports Midwest after Game 6. "They've inspired me so much. But to hear from the players' mouths that I'm their inspiration in the past two games ... it instantly makes me cry."

But she is an inspiration, according to defenseman Colton Parayko, who has developed a friendship with Laila over the past several months to the point that she wears a jean jacket with her name and his number to the games.

Well, it seems the Blues are playing for a child with a life-threatening illness, which puts them on the side of the Angels.
