Both Jordan Binnington for St. Louis and Jonathan Quick for Los Angeles kept both teams off the scoreboard for the first two period plus as the defenses play very tight and solid hockey, but the Blues struck first when Tarasenko took a psss, put a brilliant move past Kings' defenseman Mikey Anderson and scored at 3:08 to give St. Louis a 1-0 lead.
Tarasenko made it 2-0 on a breakaway, getting a quick pass from Ivan Barbashev, skated in alone on Quick and put a nifty shot past the Kings' goalie before he had time to set at 15:31 to give the Blues a 2-0 lead. David Perron added an empty net goal at 18:45 to make the final 3-0 for the Blues' fifth straight win to open the season.
