ST. LOUIS -- St. Louis wing Jaden Schwartz never panicked. He never displayed any frustration during a lengthy scoring funk.
"It doesn't help," he said. "You've just got to keep grinding away."
That mentality finally paid dividends on Monday night, when Schwartz scored twice and Jake Allen made 21 saves to help the Blues continue their mastery over the Arizona Coyotes with a 4-1 win.
St. Louis has won 10 straight games against Arizona, outscoring the Coyotes 42-13 in that time. The Blues have won 10 of their last 12 overall and trail Nashville by a point for third place in the Central Division.
