​In the end, you have to look at it as a huge point.That’s the only way to feel after the St. Louis Blues, left for dead in the third period, made a massive comeback against the New Jersey Devils, only to fall short in overtime, falling 5-4 to the Devils at Prudential Center in Newark, N.J. on Thursday.The Blues (7-7-2) were down three goals (4-1) before fighting back to tier the game scoring three goals in 3:08, including a pair 18 seconds apart to at least steal a point.But Jesper Bratt saved the Devils’ bacon with a breakaway goal at 1:26, beating Jordan Binnington five-hole (more on that later) to end it.Let’s get into it, shall we … * Another big comeback — There just wasn’t a ton going on for the Blues at the start of the third period, but just like when they began this trip with a 5-4 win against the Detroit Red Wings when they scored three times in the third to overcome a 4-2 deficit, the Blues began to chip away.Maybe they drew what the Winnipeg Jets did to the Montreal Canadiens two nights ago down 4-0 with under three minutes left in regulation before winning 5-4 in OT, but nonetheless, it started with Mason McTavish, who had a goal and an assist to end a five-game point drought.Net front presence wasn’t nearly good enough in a loss to the New York Rangers on Tuesday despite 33 shots on goal, but the Blues did a much better job getting traffic in front of Hellebuyck in this game and finally were rewarded when McTavish potted a rebound goal at 11:46 of the third period to make it a 4-2 game when he was on the doorstep to pounce on Justin Barron’s shot from the right circle:Mason McTavish’s 7th goal of the season. #stlbluespic.twitter.com/aGweoZmRkq— St. Louis Blues (@StLouisBlues) November 6, 2026Then came the two goals in 18 seconds when Philip Broberg’s slapper from the left circle off a pass from Jake Neighbours (more on him in a bit) that made it 4-3 at 14:36 after a rush up ice and Neighbours backhand sauce pass into space for the speedy defenseman to rip one home:St. Louis goal!Scored by Philip Broberg with 05:24 left in the 3rd.
