St. Louis coach Jim Montgomery’s initial postgame comment was how the Blues had the puck on their sticks, “all night long.” What led to it was a major factor.
“The way we played north, the way we played connected, our guys were connected in all three zones,” Montgomery said. “Our puck decisions were really good. We hardly had any turnovers. We made them defend a lot.”
The Blues are four points behind the Nashville Predators for the second wild-card spot into the Stanley Cup Playoffs from the Western Conference.
Jake McCabe scored for the Maple Leafs (31-30-13), who had won their past two games. Joseph Woll, who was born in the St. Louis suburb of Dardenne Prairie, Missouri, made 33 saves.
