Brandon Saad scored twice for the Blues, who received 21 saves from Jordan Binnington. Robert Thomas left the game midway through the third period after blocking a shot earlier.

This is one of those games the St. Louis Blues are going to look back on later in the season and wished they had back.Because for once, they had the chance to knock off the team that’s been a thorn in their side the past three seasons and allowed the Winnipeg Jets to get them yet again.
