Another night, another unlikely hero for the St. Louis Blues.
Martin Havlat and Magnus Paajarvi took turns as the “Next Man Up” against the Devils Tuesday night, each potting greasy goals in another impressive road win.
Havlat, who the Blues signed on Friday, broke the scoreless tie in the second after a centering feed from another reclamation project, the ageless Scott Gomez. Paajarvi extended the lead in the third after a neat pass from Dimitri Jaskin, and the Blues went on to win the contest 2-0.
Neither player was on the Opening Day roster.
