Sharks vs. Blues 2016 live stream: Start time, TV schedule and how to watch Game 5 online

The Blues adjusted in Game 4 and finally came away with a game that had more pros than cons. St. Louis evened their series and now head back home for Game 5 against the Sharks, with puck drop scheduled for 8 p.m. on NBCSN.

After putting up two shutouts in Games 2 and 3, Martin Jones allowed three goals to the Blues in the 6-3 loss. However, it was hard to fault the netminder considering the poor defensive play that was put in front of him. San Jose must tighten up defensively in Game 5, or they'll likely suffer the same fate no matter how good Jones plays.

For the first time in the series, the Blues looked like the team that was able to knock out last year's Stanley Cup champions in the opening round of the playoffs. Adjustments were made and lines were shuffled and the Blues offense got the jolt it needed in the Game 4 win. Jake Allen's insertion as the starter paid off as the Sharks pressed in the third period, and he'll likely get the start in net once again for Game 5.
