Well the Blues used a little luck, some outstanding goaltending and a player finally fulfilling his potential to extend their winning streak to 4 games.
The luck started early as Montreal named Al Montoya as the starter assuring the Blues won't face Carey Price until the Stanley Cup Finals. More luck almost followed as Max Pacioretty was labeled a game time decision with the flu but unfortunately he was able to participate in the game.
The Blues got off to another solid start, which has been a theme on this road trip, and for the fourth straight game got on the board first.
