ST. LOUIS — For one of the rare times against Vegas, the Blues outshot the Golden Knights and had plenty of scoring chances.
But after rallying from a two-goal deficit, the Blues lost the lead on a puck that deflected in off a Vegas helmet. And then an empty-netter by former Blues captain Alex Pietrangelo - the 20th allowed by the Blues this season - gave Vegas a 5-3 victory over the Blues on Sunday at Enterprise Center.
The Blues fell to 29-32-5 for the season; the Western Conference-leading Knights improved to 41-20-6.
