“Oh, this is great, when the Blues and Cardinals play on the same day it's thrilling,” said Bill Kral, a fan.

Kral said when downtown is buzzing, it’s great for the city.

Lots of fans who attended the Cardinals game planned on going home, taking a nap and then flipping over to watch the Blues game.

The Blues just need one more win against the Wild to advance to the next round. Game 6 is Thursday night at Enterprise Center. The puck drops at 8:30 p.m.

“This is awesome,” said Jack Lindenschmidt, a fan. “We have the Blues in the playoffs. Cardinals playing well. Young players really start playing well, exciting to see. I remember when we won the cup, thought we had it Game 6. Then had to go to Boston to win. Let's hope we get it tonight.”
