The Blues made it 4-2 when Kyrou rushed the puck down the middle of the ice and set up Buchnevich's shot from the right faceoff dot.

Carlsson cut the Blues' lead to 4-3 with a redirection at the right post 1:02 into the third period as an Anaheim power play expired. Schenn responded by jamming in a power-play goal at the right post just 1:38 later as St. Louis boosted its lead to 5-3.
