In St Louis, the Blues got goals from Tyler Bozak, Ivan Barbashev and David Perron and defeated the visiting San Jose Sharks, 3-2, on Tuesday night.
“We did enough,” Perron said. “I don’t know that we were clean and had good energy all night long, but it certainly was enough to get the win tonight. After the trip, the travel and all that stuff that happened the last week, it’s certainly nice.”
Jordan Binnington made 27 saves to get the win.
The win snapped a three-game skid for the Blues.
Erik Karlsson and Timo Meier scored for the Sharks.
Logan Couture left the game for the Sharks with an apparent knee injury.
“It’s big time concerning, even if it’s just a couple games or whatever, if it’s a couple weeks,” Sharks head coach Bob Boughner said. “… He’s a catalyst of our offense, penalty kill, and everything. It’ll be a tough loss but hopefully it’s not too long and it’s a day-to-day thing, so we’ll have a better idea about that tomorrow. When a guy like that goes down, everybody is very shocked.”

Aaron Dell made 24 saves in the loss.
“Today was a pretty good game,” Sharks forward Tomas Hertl said. “It was kind of up and down. I had a huge chance to score in the second and it would be a different game. We had a lot of chances, and we have to be better. When we go behind against this team, it’s tough.”
