The St. Louis Blues ended their recent home stand with one of their worst games of the season against the Vegas Golden Knights. They needed some desperation to start a long road trip against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
The Blues got a rare bit of good luck to open the game. Just 1:50 in, they were up by one after Nathan Walker and the fourth line pressured in the offensive zone and scored on an own goal where Toronto knocked it into their own goal, and Walker got credit.
That luck disappeared on the Leafs' first goal.
