The Blues kept their run of strong play going with not just a dominant effort, but one against their closest pursuer in the Central Division.
The Blues scored as many goals as they had in their previous three games combined, and nearly posted their third straight shutout, giving up a goal with 3:33 to play and they had to settle for a 5-1 win over the Stars on Friday night at American Airlines Center in Dallas.
Even though it wasn't a shutout, it may have been the most impressive and significant of the team's three-game win streak, coming against a team two points in back of them in the division, on the second night of back-to-back games and with captain Alex Pietrangelo out sick.
