ST. LOUIS (AP) — The St. Louis Blues threw everything they could at Henrik Lundqvist over the final two periods and it still wasn’t enough.Lundqvist made 39 saves and the New York Rangers got goals from Mats Zuccarello and Boo Nieves in a 2-1 victory over the Blues on Monday night.“It was intense. As a goalie Custom Boston Bruins Jerseys , when you feel the guys battle as hard as they do, you get excited,” Lundqvist said. “You want to play even harder. You want to make that extra save. We worked so hard and we came up with the big plays at the end and at the right time. That wins you a lot of games in this league.”New York has won consecutive games for the first time since taking three in a row from Nov. 17-21. The Rangers’ 4-3 victory at Nashville on Saturday night was their first on the road in regulation this season, and they followed it right up with another one.The Rangers had allowed at least four goals in eight of their past 11 games before shutting down St. Louis. The Blues have 11 home losses in regulation this season, tying them with the Coyotes and Kings for most in the NHL.“We’re in a dry spot right now,” center Jaden Schwartz said.The only goal Lundqvist gave up came at 10:08 of the first period when the Blues went ahead 1-0. David Perron fed Ryan O’Reilly, who fired a slap shot from the left faceoff circle for his 15th goal.O’Reilly has six points (three goals, three assists) in his last seven games against Rangers.“We have to find a way to bury something,” O’Reilly said. “We shot a lot of pucks. We had chances. It’s simple. It wasn’t good enough.”New York tied it on its third power-play chance in the first period. Zuccarello scored his fourth goal this season when his shot from the right faceoff circle nicked goalie Jake Allen’s pad and trickled in at 19:40. It was the seventh time in their last eight games that the Blues have allowed a power-play goal.The Rangers outshot the Blues 14-7 in the first period.New York took a 2-1 lead at 3:11 of the second when Nieves scored on a backhand from the right faceoff circle. Ryan Strome and Kevin Shattenkirk were credited with assists.Shattenkirk was back in the lineup for the first time since separating his left shoulder Dec. 10 at Tampa Bay. He missed seven games.Shattenkirk returned to St. Louis for the first time since he was traded to Washington on Feb. 27, 2017. The defenseman played parts of seven seasons with the Blues. He signed a $26.6 million, four-year contract with the Rangers as a free agent in the summer of 2017.St. Louis had three power-play chances in the second period and outshot New York 17-5 but failed to beat Lundqvist.For the game, the Blues outshot the Rangers 40-23 — including 16-4 in the third.“We didn’t look like for the last 35 minutes we were skating or interested in confrontation, so you’re going to pay the fiddler and we did,” Rangers coach David Quinn said. “We got the two points and over an 82-game season you’re going to have nights like this. You get two points and you get on the plane and head home and you don’t complain about it.”The Blues finished 0 for 4 on the power play. St. Louis went 3 for 32 on the power play in December.“We have to find a way to score more goals,” center Brayden Schenn said. “We can all make better plays.”St. Louis pulled Allen, who had 21 saves with 2:35 remaining. The Blues attacked Lundqvist to no avail.“That’s Henrik being Henrik www.officialsabres.com ,” Rangers forward Chris Kreider said. “When you’ve got a goalie like that he can cover up a lot of your mistakes and he definitely did tonight.”NOTES: The Blues fell to 1-16-2 when trailing after two periods. … Blues C Robby Fabbri was activated from injured reserve and played.
