The Ducks didn’t do the LA Kings any favora on Friday night in St. Louis.  Joel Edmundon scored with 20 seconds left to give the Blues a 4-3 win, as St. Louis moved 3 points ahead of the Kings for the final playoff spot in the West.

Jake Allen made 23 saves for St Louis.  They also got goals from Paul Stastny, Vladimir Tarasenko and Ryan Reaves.  It was their their third straight win.

Jakob Silfverberg, Chris Wagner and Rickard Rakell scored for the Ducks.  Anaheim had their two game win streak snapped.

Anaheim goalie John Gibson was making his first start after missing six games in a row with a lower-body injury.

Stastny snapped a 2-2 tie in the first minute of the third with a blast from the slot.

Silfverberg tied it at 3-3 on the power play with 10:36 left.

Then Edmundson would win it late.  That gave the Blues a win against a Ducks team they’ll be facing again on Wednesday in Anaheim.

The Ducks return to action on Sunday against the Capitals.  It will be the first of three straight home games.
