Kings fall, 4-3, on Brayden Schenn's OT goal as Blues tie them in points while winning fifth straight. It's 14 losses in 16 for L.A. (2-8-6). David Rittich stopped 28 of 32 shots. Better than they've been in some instances today, but the same in others.
The Kings lose again. 4-3 to the Blues in Overtime. 2-8-6 in their last 16 games. I don’t think they’ll do anything drastic. The break is coming at the perfect time. Hard fought game. PK saved them a point. Still need more from some guys. They’re in a dog fight now. St. Louis has…
The Blues and Kings are headed to OT tied 3-3, which means ... A fourth straight Blues game will end 4-3. Will it be a Blues' win, like the last three? #stlblues
Three points for Jordan Kyrou today, and two primary assists for Scott Perunovich.
STL Goal - Blues take their first lead of the night. Kyrou from Perunovich, down the slot, Rittich gets a piece but can't keep it out. 3-2.
The Blues were even on that power play - gave up a goal and scored one. Kings shorty: Schenn shot was wide/high, Krug had trouble keeping it in and Saad was slow getting back, 2-1. Buchnevich PP: He scores from the bumper spot, after Peruonvich showed a lot of patience, 2-2.
STL Goal - Blues equalize later in the PP. Buchnevich from the slot. 2-2.
The Blues had LA right where they wanted them. As planned, they took a penalty 1 minute into the game and created a shorthanded chance, but Buchnevich couldn't finish. #stlblues
Buchnevich nearly scores shorthanded. First whips a wrister wide of the short side, then misses the tap in off great Scandella feed. #stlblues
