Tarasenko gets 2nd goal in OT to lift Blues over Sharks

ST. LOUIS -- All Vladimir Tarasenko had to do was wait.

Tarasenko scored his second goal of the game in overtime to lift the St. Louis Blues over the San Jose Sharks 3-2 on Tuesday night.

Tarasenko got a nifty backhanded pass from Vladimir Sobotka, who fought off Mikkel Boedker behind the net for the puck. Sobotka skated in front of the net, and then passed the puck to Tarasenko, who was on the left side of the goal.

The Blues' leading goal scorer did the rest, tipping in the winner at 2:33.
