Monty on Dvorsky: "He's a good hockey player. We've seen it. There's a reason why we believe he's a huge part of our future. Because he's an outstanding young man, great to coach and wants to be a hockey player. It'll come. Sometimes it doesnt happen as quickly as we want it to."

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

Monty cont'd: "That's what happened. It's part of everyone's career. It happens to everybody." (2/2) #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

Dvorsky finished with 6:36 TOI and didn't have a shift in the final 34 minutes.

Monty: "Just play faster. Play with more conviction. He's not playing to the standard that we want our players to play with ... tonight. When that happens, you risk the chance of being sat. (MORE)

Barron: 3G, 10 pts in 15 gms

Monty: "He's done it long enough to think this is the best version of him. He wasn't a 1st rd pick by mistake. It's clear by his talent. He's putting it all together and it's awesome watching someone blossom like that. Great job by our pro scouts."

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

Monty: "I really liked the way we started the game. I thought our first 40 minutes might've been our best first 40 minutes of the year." #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

Big scrum at the horn .. Broberg involved, now Hofer coming over. #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

FINAL: #stlblues 3, Red Wings 2

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

Red Wings get one back with the extra-attacker, 3-2.

There's 1:14 left. #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

Red Wings net is empty with 2 1/2 minutes left. #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

For Snuggerud, he's now on pace for 46 goals this season. #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

Snuggerud scores his team-high 10th of the season, 3-1.

The puck went off his skate, which I believe makes three goals this season off his skate. #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

Official review: No goal. #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

During the review:

-- Players from both teams are off the bench, skating.
-- Fans are booing.
-- The 104-year-old WW2 honored pre-game turned 105. #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

They're taking a look at that puck in the crease. #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

The Blues have 28 shots and 60 attempts at the net with 12:05 left to go in regulation.

Yet, they're clinging to a 2-1 lead and now they're headed on the PK. #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

Dvorsky is on the bench. He has played just nine shifts tonight (6:36). His last shift ended with 13:48 left in the 2nd period. #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

Snuggerud has had goal No. 10 on his stick a couple of times in this period and couldn't convert. #stlblues

[Jeremy Rutherford @jprutherford]

Johnston and Englund drop 'em. #stlblues
