ST. LOUIS (AP) — Dylan Holloway scored, Joel Hofer stopped 17 shots in his second game of the season and the St. Louis Blues beat the Utah Mammoth 1-0 on Saturday night in the second half of back-to-back games for both teams.
Hofer has four career shutouts and also shutout the Sabers in Buffalo on November 6th.
The Mammoth are on a seven-game losing streak and have dropped the first two games of a six-game stretch. Since starting the season 8-2-0, Utah has moved to 4-9-3.
Utah's Logan Cooley was helped off the ice at 6:17 of the third period. Alexei Toropchenko and 21-year-old Cooley collided knee to knee just outside the blue line.
Toropchenko received a five-minute penalty and a game violation for hitting his knee.
Cooley, who is in his third NHL season, has 14 goals in 26 games. He had his first four-goal NHL game of the season Tuesday night against Vegas.
Karel Veimelka stopped 18 shots.
Holloway scored with 1:50 left in the second period for a 1–0 lead. Philip Broberg passed the ball to Holloway in the left circle, and he beat Weymelka with a wrist shot into the top right corner.
