It started with Nylander neatly twisting the puck from Blues star forward Vladimir Tarasenko at the defensive blue line, free with goaltender Jordan Binnington, he then made no mistake and bookended the decision with a backhand.

His 21st goal of the season.

And as usual when Toronto is on the move, the Swedes played a big role.

Nylander played until Justin Holl's 1–0 goal, Calle Järnkrok for John Tavares 2–1, Järnkrok and Liljegren were behind Alex Kerfoot's 3–1 goal in the box play and Järnkrok himself made it 4–3, played by Pontus Holmberg and Pierre Engvall .

The win was Toronto's third in a row.

For the St. Louis Blues, things are a little worse, the loss was the third in a row and now it has become a little distance up to the eighth and last playoff spot in the Western Conference.

However, they can take comfort in the fact that more than half the season remains.
