Justin Faulk had a goal and an assist and the St. Louis Blues overpowered the undermanned Vancouver Canucks.

Brayden Schenn, on a second period power play, and Jordan Kyrou also scored for the Blues , while Vladimir Tarasenko registered a pair of assists.

Canucks all-star Thatcher Demko, backup Jaroslav Halak and taxi squad netminder Spencer Martin are all in the NHL's COVID-19 protocol alongside forwards Bo Horvat, Conor Garland and J.T. Miller. Assistant coaches Scott Walker and Kyle Gustafson were added to the list on Sunday. Tarasenko nearly potted an empty-net strike, but was swarmed by a trio of Canucks intent on not giving up another goal.

He also figured in the power-play goal that put the Blues up 2-1 early in the second period after the Canucks were called for too many men. Faulk drew St. Louis even ahead of the first intermission. Oskar Sundqvist blasted a pass to Faulk at the front of the net and the defenceman deflected it from between his legs, sending the puck careening into the crossbar and in at the 18:33 mark.

Vancouver managed five shots on the ensuing five-on-three power play, but Husso turned them all away. As the penalties expired, Pearson picked up Alex Chiasson's rebound at the side of the net and rifled it over the goalie.Sunday marked a major milestone for Canucks head coach Bruce Boudreau, who coached his 1,000th NHL game.
