ST. LOUIS (AP) — Mikko Rantanen scored three goals to lead the surging Colorado Avalanche to a 4-3 victory over the St. Louis Blues on Tuesday night.

"It feels good to help the team and to get the win with it. It’s always better when you win," Rantanen said. “I try to help the team offensively and be responsible defensively.”

Rantanen scored a goal in each period for his seventh career hat trick and first since April 6, 2023, at San Jose. He had 37 goals this season and 14 points in his last six games.
