Luff pushed the lead to 2-0 at 11:48, taking a pass down the slot from Robby Fabbri and scoring to the glove side. It was his first goal since April 4, 2023, when he scored for the Detroit Red Wings against the Canadiens.

Burakovsky made it 3-2 at 14:08 of the third period. After Bedard deflected Colton Parayko’s poke of the puck deep in the St. Louis zone, it squirted across the top of the crease to the right post, where Burakovsky scored with a backhand.
