Game review

The Blues and Blue Jackets start a little sloppy, as you might expect both teams to get rid of rust. Although Bruce beat the blue jacket 6-3 during this period, the chance was the blue jacket. They can’t solve Joel Hofer.

Then, just after coming out of the free throw box, Warrenkoff won the board battle. He was able to bring the puck to a continuous Brendan Gaunce. In a 2-0 run, Gaunce shot and beat Hofer 1-0 between the mats.

The second time, when Jake Christiansen set Luca del Belluz to win the second assist of the night with a 2-0 record. Voronkov shows through his script what he has done this summer.

Here is Dean Evason on Voronkov Postgame: “We asked him, are you in good health?

The Blues approached a second time when Nikita Alexandrov leaned towards Justin Carbonneau’s shot 2-1. This is what the blues can come at night.

Evan Gardner stopped all six shots in the third phase. Voronkov scored in 2:29, extending it to 3-1, and then Mathieu Olivier hit Bullseye to 4-1.

Now, the Blues have six days off before playing in the next preseason against the Dallas star. They lost 2-1 to the Stars in a Saturday night shootout.

The Blue Jacket returned to it Monday night when they hosted the Buffalo Saber in the first show of the Home and Home Collection. They will play in Buffalo on Tuesday night.
