Me and my dad used to watch every game on a small bunny ears TV
Chevrier would soon be sent to Pittsburgh and Greg Millen would replace him. Millen began the year in St Louis and Riendeau took his job… Curtis Joseph became his backup.
This was Alain Chevrier's last appearance for Chicago… he was playing himself out of the NHL after having taken them to the conference championship the previous year!

So fun to watch these old games. NHL hockey was better before they narrowed the rink
Riendeau was having a nice season at the start of this game. Those were good numbers for 1989-1990.
Just started watching this, but great hustle and tenacity by the Blues on that first goal, Zezel, Mongeau, and back to Cavallini who snuck up and blasted one
Blues let Murray skate right on in, and not only get his shot away but his own rebound. And you just know Keenan was steaming after the Blues came back with a bad one on Chevrier. Chevrier was not a very good goalie imho. And this was the end of the road for him. He was also one of those guys generously listed at 5'8 180. Think it was more 5'7 170 if not slightly smaller. Little goalie…and the era of small goalies holding their own was drawing to a close.
