Blues lose in a shootout, 3-2 to Kings

LOS ANGELES — Just eight games into this hockey season, the Blues are done with the Los Angeles Kings. Finished. See you next season.

And based on the outcome of Wednesday’s contest at Staples Center, good riddance. After two victories over the Kings in St. Louis last month, the Blues were looking to sweep the three-game season series between the teams.

Instead, they got a 3-2 loss that dropped their record to 6-1-1 for the season. Brandon Saad returned from the COVID list, but the team now is just 1-1-1 with captain Ryan O’Reilly sidelined with COVID. Arthur Kaliyev scored what proved to be the game-winner in the fourth round of the shootout.
