Game Highlights: Bruins 5, Blues 2
Marco Sturm in his first year with the Boston Bruins. Also played for the Bees as a player. Not so long ago. Kurps. Yeah, he had 14 points in 34 games in his career against the Blues. Eves blocks it. Sunquist there and they hold it in. Justin Faul. Two power play goals on the year for Justin. Here’s Thomas to the goal line. Butch Navic to Thomas. Score. Falling to his knees. Robert Thomas with a slap shot in. Power play goal. One- nothing Blues. 527 into the first period. He’s looking at D’Vorski. That’s where he wants to go. Boston cuts it down. Close it off. Okay. What’s option number two? Go right back to Thomas. The puck brought over the line. Far wing again. Foster knock on the back end. Shot blocked off of Holloway. Mitten again. Now it’s poked away there by Mayu. Loose in front and the Bruins find the back of the net. breakthrough in the second. Mitten scores 1-1 with 712 to go. [Music] And then Mitten on the back door. He’s going to start with a behind the net. He’s going to kind of do a full 360 circle. Right spot at the right time and tucks it in the empty net. Puck coming up. Fair point. Bloom over the line. Found near side. Has to look for options. Sunquist checks him. Jano far wing. 5 and 1 half to go. Back to Sodblum into traffic. They score. It goes through the screen. Deflected. Amy in front by Carali. And just like that, Boston’s taking a two to one lead. And then you’re going to see Jano making a heck of a play. It’s going to go around this way. It’s going to go back around the horn the other way. Now watch Tanner Jano. He’s going to absorb the hit and then he’s going to deliver it to the defender and then it’s going to get through. Montgomery will shorten that bench as Nadinov drags it in. Loose puck. Oh, and it hit a stick of Brober thrown past the post and deflects back to the near wing. At one end, I thought it was Brober. It was actually the paddle of Joel Hoffer right there. He gets a piece of it. Keeps Mitten away from the back of the net. Here’s a perfect overview. Watch the paddle of Hoer. There’s the save number one. To the far wing it goes. And Butch Navich finds Thomas to center ice. Well, can the Blues take advantage of it? They dump it in. First touch is going and it’s stripped by Butch Navas. They do. They score. They tie the game. Broberg on the back end. Butch Navas and Thomas on the other end. And the St. Louis Blues have tied at 22. Moments later, a for check by Paulo Bush Neavage. He throws it right in front. What a pass by Boo Navis. Cleared out to Tanner Jano in a two- two game. They deflected into the Blues end. Back behind the goal. Boston nearly had it, but a good play by D’vorki. It comes loose to the Zorov. Look out into traffic. It’s loose in front. They score. I don’t know if that puck hit the hand or just the chest of the Boston forward Carali. But a failed clear from behind the net has given Boston a 3-2 lead. The shot from Zidorov. He’s going to find the body of Corali on the back door. Hits him right in the chest. Go. Oh yeah, right under the armpit. I don’t see a hand pass motion. Jim Montgomery’s taking his time with it by the bench. Castillic’s going to clean up the rebound. I don’t see enough right there, Kirbs. I don’t see enough. Here’s the shot. Another angle from the backside. Looks like it clips him right on that right armpit. I don’t see a kind of a hand motion there. And then this physical Bruce Nadino going back in behind the net and it’s coming back to the near side. Diving forward was Minton trying to draw the penalty. He didn’t get it. Here’s a launch shot. Oo, that one hit off the post. Comes into the slot. They score. Minton puts it in. His second of the game. And it’s now 42 with 827 to go in the third. He’s going to throw it to the middle. Then watch the way he jumps. Mitten with a bobbling puck. This is like a change up for Joel Hoffer. It’s point blank slap shot. Boston uh clears it out. Posture knock to the empty net. Off the post it goes. Come on fellas. Make it pay. Maybe that’s the bounce. Comes back to the Bruins on the near wing to Zaka. He scores. 5-2 Boston. 141 to go in the third with the bow for the Boston Bruins. David Posnock. He misses the empty net. Look at the hunt. See how he stops on that play. I mean, this is what he does. Third assist of the game for David Poster. And it’s the chemistry. It’s just not there, right? I you form chemistry by, you know, playing together. It’s the togetherness that through a consistent stretch of games.
Highlights from a 5-2 loss to the Boston Bruins on Dec. 9, 2025 at Enterprise Center. Robert Thomas scored both goals for the Blues.

The thumbnail has one score. The caption has another. Might wanna revise
At this point being a blues fan is a tortureš
