Penalty kill woes are dragging down Blues, even during recent win streak

TAMPA, Fla. — After a promising start, the Blues’ traditionally strong penalty kill unit has been a tailspin, a slump that lasted through much of the team’s eight-game losing streak and pretty much continued during their seven-game winning streak.

And continued Wednesday when that winning streak was snapped in a 6-2 loss in Buffalo.

You have to keep scrolling down the page to find the Blues in the latest penalty kill rankings in the NHL. There they are, 30th in the league with a paltry 68.2% efficiency rate.
