The St. Louis Blues suffered another heartbreaking one-goal loss to the Dallas Stars, falling 4-3 on Tuesday night at Enterprise Center. For the second straight game against Dallas, a late icing led to a defensive zone faceoff loss and a goal with just over one minute left this time by Thomas Harling.
The Blues dropped to 19 wins, 25 losses, and nine overtime losses, marking their fifth consecutive defeat in a zero wins, four losses, one overtime loss stretch. Down three goals entering the third period and shorthanded without forward Jake Nabors and Jordan Cairo due to injuries.
What were the key moments in the Blues' heartbreaking loss to the Stars?
The Blues mounted an epic comeback.
Captain Braden Shen scored twice while Robbie Fabry netted his first Blues goal in over six years to make it three all at 1550. Goalie Jordan Bennington stopped 20 shots but fell to two wins, 10 losses, and one overtime loss in his last 13 starts. Players and coach Jim Montgomery praised the third period fight despite the loss. Shin said it sucks to battle back like that only to lose in the final minute, but they have to keep pushing. Montgomery called it a never-say-die effort, especially down to 10 forwards, and defended the icing play as bad board luck, not a mental error. That icing happened with the Blues in full momentum, as defenseman Tyler Tucker tried a smart indirect pass that bounced awkwardly off snowy boards.
How did late-game icing affect the outcome of the game?
Dallas won the faceoff, and Harley's shot deflected off Matu Joseph past Bennington. It echoed Friday's game in Dallas, where icings also doomed them in a 3-2 loss. Meanwhile, special teams remain a sore spot, with the penalty kill ranking 29th at 73.9% and the power play 25th at 16.9%. Dallas scored twice on the power play to build a 3-0 lead, underscoring why these closed games keep slipping away. This DNN story comes to you thanks to our sponsor.
