Clayton Keller assisted on two Utah goals to become the third NHL player this season with at least one assist in 10 straight games.

St. Louis struck first at the 3:45 mark of the first period when Buchnevich tapped in a wrist shot at the post. Utah equalized when Carcone snapped in the puck with 3:05 left in the first.

Crouse put the Mammoth in front 45 seconds into the second period, tapping in a deflected puck after MacKenzie Weegar fired a shot down the middle.

Thomas scored twice later in the period to help the Blues retake the lead. He leveled the score on a wrist shot at the 8:14 mark and then tipped in the puck with 8:53 left in the second.

Utah equalized again with 1:07 remaining in the second on Yamamoto’s blast down the middle.
