In the final game of a three-game road trip, Seattle played a lot of quality minutes that resulted in an overall possession advantage, the first goal of the game, and a lead through 40 minutes of play. But St. Louis also owns the second-best power play conversion rate in the NHL, and five chances with the man-advantage gave the Blues the time they needed to finally find the back of the net. A second goal established a lead for the home team, and ultimately Seattle couldn't battle back to gain a standings point.
