The St. Louis Blues will welcome the Minnesota Wild to Enterprise Center for an NHL game on Wednesday. The St. Louis Blues lost 3-5 in their last game over the Knights. Jordan Kyrou, Jakub Vrana and Tyler Pitlick scored for St. Louis, and Jordan Binnington stopped 26 of 30 shots as the Blues dropped to 3-7-2 since Feb. 18. “We’re playing some good hockey,” Blues coach Craig Berube said. “We did some real good things in the offensive zone tonight. I really liked our game. It was unfortunate we didn’t get the win.”
Pietrangelo sealed the victory when he scored an empty-net goal with 7 seconds remaining. “We just kept playing,” Vegas coach Bruce Cassidy said. “It was a good goal by them. I don’t look at it as a huge breakdown after breakdown after breakdown. That’s when you get worried. So they made a good play. They can score, but we also know they can give up some goals so we just said let’s just stick with it, get back to work, and we did.”
The Minnesota Wild on the other hand lost 5-4 against the Coyotes in their last game. Mats Zuccarello, Ryan Reaves, Matt Boldy and Connor Dewar had goals for Minnesota. Filip Gustavsson finished with 18 saves. “We were a little loose (the last two games) defensively and we’ve got to dial it back in,” Wild coach Dean Evason said. “They played hard, we played hard, there was a lot of firm hockey. They caught a little bounce at the end and we didn’t.”
The Wild played their second game without injured Kirill Kaprizov, who went out Wednesday against Winnipeg with a lower-body injury and may miss the rest of the regular season. Kaprizov leads Minnesota with 39 goals. It was a physical game from the beginning — there were four fights, with the main event coming midway through the third period when Minnesota’s Jake Middleton and Arizona’s Lawson Crouse traded several punches. That fight was prompted when the Coyotes’ Jack McBain knocked down Mats Zuccarello. A frenetic first period featured two goals from Hayton, two fights and a rare Reaves goal.
