GLENDALE, Ariz. — The games are dwindling down and the wins are stacking up for the St. Louis Blues. They bid adieu to the Arizona Coyotes and Gila River Arena on Saturday with a 5-4 overtime victory.
After squandering a 4-1 lead in the third period to force overtime, Robert Thomas won a faceoff. Vladimir Tarasenko sent the puck to Justin Faulk in the slot, who scored his second goal of the game 30 seconds into extra time.
At 48-20-11, the Blues kept pace with the idle Minnesota Wild in the battle for second place in the Central Division and home-ice advantage in the playoffs. Both teams have 107 points, although the Blues have just three games left in the regular season to the Wild’s four.
