DALLAS (AP) — Blues captain David Backes scored off a rebound during a power play 10:58 into overtime and St. Louis beat the Dallas Stars 4-3 in Game 2 on Sunday to get even in the second-round series.
St. Louis was on its second power play of overtime after Antoine Roussel was called for interference.
Vladimir Tarasenko took a slap shot that defenseman Alex Goligoski blocked. But the Blues kept charging and Backes scored on the rebound of Alexander Steen's shot.
The best-of-seven series matching the Western Conference's top two teams switches to St. Louis for Game 3 on Tuesday night.
