The Blues took advantage of the indiscipline of the Dallas Stars to score two goals in the very last minute of the game to win 2-1 on Sunday in St. Louis.

A hooking penalty awarded to captain Jamie Benn first saw Ryan O’Reilly tie the game with 47 seconds left in the third period. On the streak, Miro Heiskanen received a penalty for sticking. Some 18 seconds later, Jordan Kyrou hit the target next.
The Missouri formation thus obtains a point in a 13e straight away game at the Enterprise Center, in front of his supporters. She had 12 wins in that streak. The Stars, for their part, see their streak of four wins – spread over three weeks due to a COVID-19 outbreak – come to an end.
The Stars were on course to win by a net from Jason Robertson in the second period. On the streak, the puck barely crossed the goal line before Jordan Binnington kicked it outside of his cage. A very short recourse to video review confirmed the goal. Robertson had one point in a seventh straight game.
Both goalies were up to the task ahead, having to show off their athleticism on several occasions. While Binnington was put to the test 27 times, Braden Holtby was pushing back 29 pucks and heading for his first shutout of the season, before his teammates let him down.
