The St. Louis Blues, after a lineup overhaul, secured a 3-0 victory against the Calgary Flames. Goalie Joel Hofer recorded his first career shutout with 26 saves. However, the Blues' performance declined in their following game against the Vancouver Canucks. Despite goalie Jordan Binnington's commendable efforts, the Blues were heavily outshot and suffered a 5-0 shutout loss. The Canucks' victory was led by standout performances from Quinn Hughes and goalie Thatcher Demko.

FINAL: Canucks 5, Blues 0
The Blues muster as many shots early in the 2nd period (4) as they had in the entire 1st period. But Hughes directs a backhander to the front of the net and it goes in off Hayes' skate, 2-0. And now the Canucks have added another, 3-0. #stlblues
This almost feels like a win for the #stlblues that they're only down 1-0. Shots are 19-3. Thanks to Jordan Binnington. I can't stress that enough.
Blues left their legs in Calgary. Van with 19-3 shot advantage, four power plays, 1-0 lead after 20 minutes. #Canucks
#Canucks 1 Blues 0 Shots: 19-3 Attempts: 35-4
Thanks to Jordan Binnington, the Blues only trail 1-0 at the end of the first period. Shots were 19-3, Vancouver. And the Canucks will begin the second period with 1:27 on the power play.
Shot are now 19-2 Vancouver. Yes, the Canucks have had three PPs, but 13 of the 19 shots are at even-strength. #stlblues
Only a matter of time. Shots were 8-0 Vancouver and Binnington was bailing out the Blues until Hughes finally put the Canucks on the board, 1-0. #stlblues
Blues get hemmed in their own zone for an extended period of time. Quinn Hughes makes them pay. 1-0, Canucks.

My #stlblues player of the game in their 3-0 win against the #flames is center Robert Thomas: https://t.co/j3T4mIkAk7
Much, much better all-around performance by the Blues: - Hofer 1st career shutout (26 saves) - Outshot opponent for 1st time this season (35-26) - Blues only 8 missed shots - Thomas team-high 6 SOG - PP 0-for-4, but 7 shots
Winnipeg native Joel Hofer with his 1st career shutout…a 27 save game vs Calgary, as the Blues win 3-0.
final: #stlblues 3, #flames 0 ... first career shutout for Hofer with 26 saves, Sundqvist with a goal and assist, Kapanen with a shorty, Leddy a goal.
FINAL: #stlblues 3, Flames 0
The Blues won, 3-0. They are 3-2-1. Joel Hofer has his first career shutout, and St. Louis submitted its best performance of the fall.
At the end of the first period, it's 2-0 Blues. Shots in the arena show 10-9, St. Louis. If that holds, it would be the first time this season the Blues outscored and outshot the opposition in a period.
