ST. LOUIS (AP) — Thomas Harley’s goal with just over a
minute left short-circuited a late rally by the St. Louis Blues and
lifted the Dallas Stars to a 4-3 win on Tuesday night.
Matt Duchene scored a pair of goals for his first multigoal game since
Feb. 8. Roope Hintz also scored and Jake Oettinger made 23 saves, as the
Stars won for the third time in their last four games and improved to
10-2-1 against St. Louis going back to Nov. 28, 2022. |

Brayden Schenn scored twice and Robby Fabbri also scored in the
third period as St. Louis attempted to rally from a 3-goal
deficit. Jordan Binnington made 20 saves for the Blues, who
dropped their fifth straight game.
Duchene’s power-play goal for the Stars at the 3:20 mark of the
second period broke a scoreless tie.
Duchene recorded his seventh of the season 40 seconds later with
the help of a lucky bounce to make it 2-0. Duchene threw the
puck in front of the net, where it deflected off Blues
defenseman Logan Mailloux, who was tied up with Jamie Benn in
the crease.
Hintz made it 3-0 with a power-play goal with 1:54 left in the
second. It is the 15th time this season where Dallas scored
multiple goals with the man advantage in a game.
Fabbri scored for the Blues at 3:15 of the third period. It was
his first goal since Jan. 28, 2025, when he played for Anaheim.
Schenn scored at 6:22 of the third to cut the Blues deficit to
3-2 before he evened the game with 4:10 left. It was Schenn’s
second multigoal game of the season.
Blues forwards Jake Neighbours (lower body) and Jordan Kyrou
(upper body) left the game and did not return.
