As exhausting as it has been to write about the Blues playing the Coyotes for what amounts to a regular season playoff series, last night’s 4-1 victory gave Blues fans something to be excited about. Was it a massive blowout? Despite what the score may look like, no - it was a closely held game. Justin Faulk had the two goals scored with Darcy Kuemper in net, one of which was a power play goal. Ivan Barbashev and Brayden Schenn’s goals were both scored with Kuemper pulled.
One even strength goal (technically) for the night isn’t enough, and the Blues more than likely know it.
