The Blues outshot the Flames 15-7 in the first period and had a 14-4 edge at one point. St. Louis captain Brayden Schenn opened the scoring at 4:55 after a turnover behind the Calgary net, taking a pass from Dylan Holloway and roofing a shot high farside from one knee.

St. Louis earned a hard-fought 2-1 win over Calgary, keeping the Blues close to the Flames in the standings, with a rematch coming Thursday.

The Blues are 14th in SOG goals allowed and while they don't take a ton of penalties, they struggle to stop opposing power plays when they do, operating at a 73.87% success rate (7th-worst in the NHL). Kadri, who skates on the top PP unit, will be hungry to help Calgary bounce back here.
