Left winger Jaden Schwartz scored twice, one in each of the first two periods, before left winger David Perron broke a 2-2 tie with a power-play goal at 15:56 of the second period to put the Blues ahead to stay, in a 3-2 win over the San Jose Sharks.

 

Goalie Jake Allen preserved the one-goal lead by stopping 13 San Jose shots in the third period, including a couple of saves in the final 55 seconds when a delay of game penalty against center Kyle Brodziak gave the Sharks a 6-on-4 advantage after pulling goalie Martin Jones.

 

The Sharks got even-strength goals from center Logan Couture and left winger Kevin Labanc.

 

St. Louis will play their next game at home against Nashville.
