For whatever words the Blues couldn’t find, the remnants of the Enterprise Center crowd found their diction of choice: booooo. https://t.co/8vG56ohiIf
Sharks did Kings a solid with 4-0 road win in St. Louis. Mackenzie Blackwood made 37 stops for his second shutout to end San Jose's 9-game losing streak. Blues stay five points out of playoff spot. Crazy stat: Sharks, with 17 wins, have outscored Blues, 9-1, in two meetings.
The Sharks have been outscored 288-153 by the other 30 teams in the NHL this season. They have outscored the Blues 9-1. #stlblues
Simply stunning. Sharks are the NHL’s worst team, but snap nine-game losing streak to stun Blues 4-0. Allows Van to punch playoff ticket. #Canucks https://t.co/csP9VEBgtt

The Blues lost, 4-0. They are 39-31-4. St. Louis has lost to the Sharks twice this season, and was booed off the ice at the end of the second and third periods.
That'll do it, #stlblues come up with their most disgraceful and embarrassing performance of the season, falling to the lowly #sjsharks 4-0. Kiss those faint playoff hopes goodbye. With that performance, they don't deserve to be talked about. Loud boos now.
FINAL: #sjsharks 4, #stlblues 0
#stlblues getting booed again.
As San Jose sits back and defends its 3-0 lead, the Blues are up to 28 shots on goal. Everything hitting Blackwood's jersey logo. #stlblues
The Blues had 3 shots in the 2nd period. They had 1 in the first 18 minutes of the period and 2 in the final 2 minutes. #stlblues
The Sharks are up 3-0 on the Blues after two periods. If San Jose wins in regulation, the #Canucks will clinch a playoff spot tonight. @Sportsnet650
Boos at the end of the second period at Enterprise Center. https://t.co/0e79HReHuv
The Blues are being booed off the ice. #stlblues
After two, #stlblues being embarrassed and booed off the ice trailing 3-0 to the #sjsharks. Outshot 12-3 in that period.
Yeah it's a Bolduc turnover that gift-wraps the game's first goal for San Jose. But the Blues have 0 shots on goal through 10 minutes this period including a brief PP. The Sharks, who are 0-8-1 in their last 9 games and have one win in their last 19, are outshooting them 6-0.
The Blues had 11 shots on goal in the 1st period, including six high-danger chances, but alas, it's 0-0. #stlblues
After one, #stlblues and #sjsharks no score. Shots are 10-3 in favor of STL.
Nice pass by Kyrou there. Schenn denied on the backhander, which was the Blues' 11th shot of the game (11-2). Blackwood coming up big so far for the Sharks. #stlblues
Shot attempts are 20-3 in favor of St. Louis midway through the firsy period. Still 0-0. Blackwood with 9 saves.
The #SJSharks can help the #Canucks and #GoAvsGo clinch playoff berths today. They have beaten the #stlblues once this season. Read how they can help on @TheHockeyNews.⤵️ https://t.co/Arbh7KfLSY
