Tarasenko, Steen score late, lift Blues past Canucks 4-3
ST. LOUIS — Alexander Steen has been hot since Mike Yeo took over as coach of the St. Louis Blues. His teammates have been even hotter.
Vladimir Tarasenko and Steen scored third-period power-play goals to lift the streaking Blues to a 4-3 win over the Vancouver Canucks on Thursday night.
Magnus Paajarvi and Jori Lehtera also scored, and Kevin Shattenkirk had three assists for the Blues, who won their sixth straight game. Jake Allen made 18 saves.
“We’re playing a lot of different styles of opponents and we have to switch our game up a little bit, too,” Shattenkirk said. “We’ve been able to find ways on back-to-backs and find ways to win in tough environments.”
