Well, fancy that: the St. Louis Blues are nipping at the heels of a Western Conference wildcard spot (pay no attention to how many more games they've played than a couple of the teams in front of them). They've won two in a row and are 5-4-1 in their last 10 games. This is less "the Blues have figured it out and are good," and more "everyone in the West sorta stinks, and the Blues are just less bad at the moment," but hey, at least they're in a playoff race many counted them out of a month ago.
