In a thrilling overtime finish, Cam Fowler netted the game-winning goal with just 1:34 left in the extra period, leading the St. Louis Blues to a narrow 2-1 victory over the Detroit Red Wings. This marks the Blues' 10th consecutive win, further securing their position in the Western Conference playoff race. Jordan Kyrou also contributed, scoring his 32nd goal of the season in the final seconds of regulation to tie the game. Goaltender Jordan Binnington was instrumental, making 20 saves, while Cam Talbot stood tall for Detroit with 35 saves.

Detroit's J.T. Compher opened the scoring early in the third period, but the Blues showcased resilience, with Fowler's goal coming from an assist by Robert Thomas, who has been on a hot streak with 11 assists in his last five games. This victory ties the Blues with Minnesota for the first wild-card spot, although Minnesota holds the tiebreaker due to more wins in regulation and overtime. The Blues aim to keep their momentum as they prepare to face the Pittsburgh Penguins next.
