ST. LOUIS (AP) — Dylan Holloway had a hat trick and added an
assist in his return from a sprained ankle, Joel Hofer made 23
saves and the St. Louis Blues came off the Olympic break to beat
the Seattle Kraken 5-1 on Thursday night.
Jordan Kyrou and Holloway — activated from injured reserve
before the game — scored in a 23-second span early in the second
period to give St. Louis a 3-1 lead.
Pius Suter added a goal and two assists to help the Blues end a
three-game losing streak.
Holloway completed St. Louis’ first hat trick of the season with
3:01 left, scoring into an empty net for his 11th of the season.
Kaapo Kakko tied it at 1 for Seattle in the first period, and
Philipp Grubauer stopped 26 shots. The Kraken were coming off a
4-1 loss in Dallas on Wednesday night.
Kyrou made it 2-1 at 1:12 of the second off a feed from Pavel
Buchnevich on a break. Holloway poked the puck past Grubauer off
a scramble at 1:35. Suter scored at 1:56 of the third.
St. Louis' Cam Fowler appeared in his 1,100th game, becoming the
10th active defenseman in the NHL to reach the mark.
