ELLIOTT SHINES IN GAME 1 OF WESTERN CONFERENCE FINAL

Brian Elliott made 32 saves, including five in the final three minutes of regulation, andJori Lehtera scored the tiebreaking goal midway through the second period to help the Blues win the opening game of the Western Conference Final.

* Elliott, who led the League in save percentage (.930) and tied for second in goals-against average (2.07) during the regular season, improved to 9-6 in the 2016 Stanley Cup Playoffs (2.20 GAA, .932 SV%, 1 SO).

* Elliott improved to 4-0 with a 1.29 goals-against average and .954 save percentage in five career postseason appearances against the Sharks. In the 2012 Conference Quarterfinals, Elliott entered Game 2 in relief of Jaroslav Halak (W) to record a combined shutout before winning the next three contests to help the Blues eliminate the Sharks in five games.

* Lehtera, who has 2-7—9 in 20 career playoff games, notched his only other postseason goal exactly one minute into the Blues’ Game 7 victory in the First Round vs. CHI.

10-YEAR REUNION

Brian Elliott made seven of his saves against Sharks captain Joe Pavelski – who shares the League lead with nine goals this postseason – including point-blank stops in the second and third periods. The two players, who are meeting in the playoffs for a second time (also 2012 CQF) won an NCAA championship together with the University of Wisconsin in 2006 (photo courtesy of @BadgerMHockey).

LEADING THE WAY

Blues captain David Backes scored the opening goal and paced all players with 11 hits – three shy of San Jose’s team total (STL: 28, SJS: 14) and the most by a player in one game in the 2016 Stanley Cup Playoffs. He ranks second in the League with 68 hits this postseason (15 GP) and shares the team lead with 7-6—13, matching his point total from his first 29 career playoff contests (5-8—13).

"As you know from my past features, Peachy Deegan and I were in the same class at Boston College prior to either of us becoming entrepreneurs. When we played together on the BC Alumni softball team in Central Park years ago, she mentioned she could not find a great dentist in Manhattan and could often be found networking on her phone in the outfield hiding from the ball. She was my second patient ever in 2006 when I opened my dental practice; I was one of the first sponsors on Whom You Know and the first Mover and Shaker featured in 2009 and have worked with her continuously since. She's even talked her friends that are doctors into being my patients, and they subsequently send their hospital colleagues. I don't know anyone that is as great of a networker and writer as Peachy, nevermind that she is upstanding and always good for her word. Cosmopolitan Dental is so happy to be in the company of the caliber of major brands she works with today, and although she will tell you a million ways to get your teeth dirty between Peachy's Picks, Terrific Takeout and Peachy's Pantry, Peachy Deegan will tell you there is only one way to get your teeth clean!"
