who lost for the first time this season after winning their
first two — and Robert Thomas had the other goal. Jordan Kyrou
recorded two assists, and Jordan Binnington made 24 stops.
Mathieu and Pierre-Olivier Joseph became the first brothers to
play for the Blues in a game since Rich and Ron Sutter in 1993.
They are the seventh pair of brothers of play for the club.
Takeaways
Blues: St. Louis is proving to be a tough out. The Blues played
the second of a back-to-back and third game in four days — all
on the road. They overcame multigoal deficits to win their first
two, and fell behind 3-1 in the second period Friday. Twice, the
Blues trimmed the lead to a goal.
Golden Knights: The top line of Barbashev, Eichel and Stone hand
in five goals in the season-opening 8-4 victory over Colorado on
Wednesday and against the Blues were responsible for two more
goals.
Key moment
The Golden Knights for the second game in a row fell behind in
the first period before quickly answering. After Buchnevich
scored at 6:47, Eichel responded 1:15 later, taking Barbashev's
pass on a 2-on-2 rush.
Key stat
12 — The number of goals the Golden Knights have scored through
two games.
Up next
The Blues play their first home game when Minnesota visits
Tuesday, the first of four straight at home. The Golden Knights
play the last of a three-game homestand when Anaheim comes to
town Sunday.
