The St. Louis Blues, looking for a season-high fourth straight win, aimed to be four games over .500 for the first time in over a year with Pavel Buchnevich playing and Jordan Binnington starting as goaltender. Klim Kostin, also known as 'Neighbours', continued his hot stretch, and Oskar Sundqvist was earning the team's trust. The game against the Colorado Avalanche at the Enterprise Center began with the Blues drawing the game's first penalty, a roughing call on Josh Manson. Later, Brandon Saad's stick was slashed, giving the Blues a power play. Josh Manson initially put the Avalanche ahead 1-0, but the goal was disallowed after the Blues challenged for goalie interference by Kurtis MacDermid. Despite the disallowed goal, the Avalanche led 1-0.
The #Avs have more penalties taken (2) in the first nine minutes of this game than goals disallowed (1) and shots on goal (0) combined. Also, the Blues have had 3-4 wide open looks in the danger area and can't hit the net. None of these are particularly good for the visitors.
Buchnevich has had three quality shots from the slot and misses the net on each, just snapped his stick going to the bench. #stlblues
here is the play, obvious interference by MacDermid. #Avs #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado https://t.co/8EUOncHGuc
Saad gets his stick slashed, #stlblues back to the PP, Wood to the box at 7:41.
Manson redeems himself by getting the goal and the Avs ahead 1-0. Love that secondary assist but the goal comes back after a review #Avs #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado https://t.co/e55qki5egy

Manson might have a goal but Blues are challenging goalie interference on MacDermid. #stlblues
Josh Manson makes it 1-0 on the first shot of the game for the Avs. Great pass by Olofsson.
#stlblues challenging for goalie interference.
Josh Manson gets his revenge. Brayden Schenn turnover, and Manson walks down the slot. 1-0, Avs.
Schenn turns it over along the wall, Manson down the slot, 1-0 #avs #stlblues
Did Sundqvist point at Manson to go to the box? #stlblues
#stlblues have got some early jump here and draw the game's first penalty, roughing on Manson at 2:37.
