ST. LOUIS (AP) --- Dylan Holloway scored, Joel Hofer stopped 17 shots for his
second shutout 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, also blanking the Sabres in Buffalo on Nov. 6.
The Mammoth have a seven-game road losing streak and dropped the first two
games of a six-game trip. Since starting the season 8-2-0, Utah has sputtered
to a 4-9-3 mark.
Utah's Logan Cooley was helped off the ice at 6:17 of the third period. Alexey
Toropchenko and the 21-year-old Cooley collided knee to knee just outside the
blue line.
Toropchenko was given a five-minute major penalty and a game misconduct for
kneeing.
Cooley, who is in his third NHL season, has 14 goals through 26 games. He had
the NHL's first four-goal game of the season Tuesday night against Vegas.
Karel Vejmelka stopped 18 shots.
Holloway scored with 1:50 left in the second period for a 1-0 lead. Philip
Broberg dropped a pass back to Holloway in the left circle and he beat Vejmelka
with a wrist shot to the top, right corner.
