3. The defense keeps scoring. Alex Pietrangelo scored two goals Saturday to remain No. 1 among NHL defensemen in points with 15. Joel Edmundson contributed a goal in Saturday's win, too, giving him a new career high with four. The Blues lead all teams in the League with 17 goals from defensemen.
4. Jake Allen keeps rolling. The Blues goaltender made 27 saves in a wide-open game on Saturday, posting his eighth win of the season, which ranks second in the League among goaltenders.
If the Blues are to keep things going, they're going to need more of the same on Tuesday night when they meet the New Jersey Devils at 6 p.m. CT at Prudential Center (FSMW, FSGO, KMOX).
The Devils have started the season 9-3-1 and have four players in double digits in points: Taylor Hall (17), Jesper Bratt (12), Will Butcher (12) and Nico Hischier (10). New Jersey is coming off of a three-game road trip through Western Canada where they went 1-1-1, collecting three of a possible six points. New Jersey remains the top team in the Metropolitan Division and is second overall in the East.
