DENVER • With another power-play goal in Saturday’s 3-0 victory over Arizona, the Blues continue to click without catalyst Kevin Shattenkirk on the man-advantage.

Since the trade of Shattenkirk, who had 20 of his 42 points on the specials-teams unit before his departure, the Blues have converted seven of 23 opportunities (30.4 percent) in their last 10 games. They have climbed to No. 3 in the NHL (22.7 percent) after sitting at No. 7 (21.7) at the time of the deal.

“What I like is, we’re a little bit more direct the last couple of games,” Blues coach Mike Yeo said. “We didn’t score for the first 4 minutes, 57 seconds of that five-minute major (in Arizona on Saturday), but we had great zone time. We were getting a number of players to the net. Even the goal that we scored, we’re not looking for the perfect play there. We’re putting the puck to the net, and you end up getting rewarded when you do that enough.”

The player who scored that goal was Alex Pietrangelo, who now has one goal and four assists on the power play since taking over Shattenkirk’s spot on the top unit.
