Joel Hofer Produces 5th Shutout of Season as Blues Blank Ducks

Joel Hofer's fifth shutout and a three-goal second period helped St. Louis win five of six games since the Olympic break, completing a four-game trip sweep.

  • A 4-0 shutout by the Blues on March 9 saw Joel Hofer make 22 saves for his fifth shutout, completing a four-game road-trip sweep.
  • Anaheim completed a nine-game, 36-day homestand and collected 14 of 18 possible points in a stretch spanning the Olympic break.
  • Jonathan Drouin, acquired from the New York Islanders, scored in his Blues debut, while Kyrou opened the scoring at 4:22 and the Blues added three second-period goals.
  • The Blues’ win made them winners of five of six and extended a season-best four-game streak, while the Ducks went 0-for-6 on the power play and start a four-game road swing in Winnipeg on Tuesday.
  • An empty-net goal at 4:02 sealed the game after Husso was pulled with more than five minutes left, despite his 31 saves for the Ducks.
