MONDAY’S RESULTS
Home Team in Caps
NY ISLANDERS 2, Calgary 1 (OT)
ST. LOUIS 4, Dallas 3 (OT)

BLUES STAY HOT AT HOME
Dallas tied the game twice in the third period, but Vladimir Tarasenko scored the winner with 1:36 remaining in overtime to help the St. Louis extend their home winning streak to five games.

* The Blues have now earned a point in ten consecutive games on home ice (8-0-2) and are 10-1-2 overall at Scottrade Center. Their last 10-game home point streak came from Jan. 28 – Mar. 27, 2014, when they posted an identical 8-0-2 record.

* Jake Allen picked up his sixth straight victory overall and his fifth straight at home, the longest home winning streak of his career. Allen improved to 8-0-2 with a 1.57 GAA and a .940 SV% on home ice this season. According to Elias, Allen is the first Blues goaltender to earn at least a point in 10 straight home games in one season since Jaroslav Halak did so from Dec. 8, 2011 – Mar. 8, 2012 (13-0-1).

* David Perron stretched his point streak to eight games (3-8—11) to set a new career high, surpassing the mark he previously set from Feb. 7-18, 2012 (6-3—9 in seven games).

* Tarasenko has earned a point in 10 of his last 12 games (6-8—14) and sits tied for third in League scoring with 10-13—23 this season.

* Jaden Schwartz picked up an assist to extend his point streak to seven games (5-4—9), one shy of his personal best eight-game streak accomplished from Dec. 19, 2013 – Jan. 4, 2014 (7-3—10) and Dec. 11, 2014 – Jan. 13, 2015 (6-6—12).

LOOSE PUCKS
John Tavares recorded 1-1—2, including a top-shelf wrist shot, in the Islanders’ overtime victory. He leads the team with 6-11—17 this season . . .

ICYMI: Senators goaltender Craig Anderson, Devils forward Michael Cammalleri and Sharks defenseman Brent Burns were named the NHL’s “Three Stars” for the week ending Nov. 27.
