In St Louis, Jordan Binnington made 29 saves as the Blues defeated the Pittsburgh Penguins, 5-2, on Saturday.
Jaden Schwartz potted a goal and had two points on the night.
Justin Faulk and Nathan Walker picked up their first goals with the Blues.
“We had everybody contributing tonight, which is important for sure,” Blues coach Craig Berube said. “We need everybody to chip in goals, and we did that tonight.”
Sam Lafferty and Kris Letang scored for the Penguins.
“I think for most of the game, first two periods, we were playing really well,” Letang said. “I think we kind of burned ourselves in the third.”
The Blues are 5-1-1 in their last seven.
“I think I’ve had some opportunities,” Faulk said. “I don’t think I’ve had a ton of them that I’m breaking my stick over the post or something, that I’m trying to switch them thinking something’s wrong there. It was a little tough stretch there, and I knew one would go in eventually.
“You’ve just got to stick with it, keep shooting pucks and try and get pucks through and onto the net.”
Ivan Barbashev and Mackenzie MacEachern also scored for St Louis.

Matt Murray made 22 saves in the loss.
“Coach even said we battled a lot harder tonight. It’s hockey, it happens, but if we just keep bringing that kind of effort and clean up a few things, we’ll be good,” the Penguins’ Sam Lafferty said.
