The St Louis Blues capped a perfect 3-0 homestand with a 5-1 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday, Mar. 28, keeping their slim playoff chances alive.
Dylan Holloway had a goal and assist, while Pius Suter netted a short-handed goal and Justin Holl claimed his first goal of the year. Jordan Kyrou and Jake Neighbours also recorded a pair of assists. The Blues won 54 percent of face-offs and pelted Toronto with 38 shots on goal to the Leafs’ 13.
Their fourth straight win, coupled with another loss for Nashville, means that St Louis are now four points behind the Predators for the second wild card spot with ten games remaining. The Blues will look to keep their streak alive on the road when they visit the San Jose Sharks on Monday, Mar. 30, with puck drop at 9 p.m.
