VANCOUVER, British Columbia — This up-and-down, unpredictable and at times exasperating Blues season has returned to the “up” mode.
The Blues won their fourth in a row and extended their point streak to five games with a 5-1 victory over the Vancouver Canucks on Monday at Rogers Arena. The win got them back above .500 at 16-15-1, largely a result of feasting on Pacific Division foes. They have won seven straight against Pacific squads and are 9-2-0 against that division this season.
Special teams were special on this night, and so was Jordan Kyrou. He scored his first career hat trick and now has 16 goals on the season. That’s three ahead of his pace from this point last season when he made the NHL All-Star Game.
