UNDATED (AP) — The St. Louis Blues were a pretty hot hockey team before going 0-2-1 through the New York metropolitan area.
The Blues have followed losses to the Rangers and Islanders by falling to the Devils, 3-2 in overtime. Dougie Hamilton scored at 1:12 of OT and rookie Nico Daws made 19 saves. The Devils led 2-0 on goals by Ty Smith and Dawson Mercer heading into the third, but St. Louis knotted the score when Torey Krug and Jordan Kyrou scored less than four minutes apart early in the period.
Vladimir Tarasenko had two assists for the Blues, who had been winners of four straight and six of seven before their winless road trip.
