from Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch,
In case you haven’t noticed, but you probably have, the Blues haven’t exactly been the Comeback Kids this season. Through their first 50 games, they had trailed 22 times entering the third period.
Their record in those games? A regrettable 1-18-3. The lone win was back on Dec. 11 in St. Louis, when after trailing the Florida Panthers 1-0 entering the third, the Blues rallied for a 4-3 win.
On Tuesday before an intimate gathering at BB&T Center, it happened again. Trailing 1-0 after two periods to Florida, and then 2-0 just 30 seconds into the third, the Blues got goals from Colton Parayko on a wraparound, Ryan O’Reilly in a mad scrum, and then the game-winner from Vince Dunn to pull out a dramatic 3-2 victory.
And they celebrated with ... disco music. Yes, the sounds of “Gloria” by Laura Branigan were blaring in the visitors’ locker room.
Watch the game highlights below.
