The St. Louis Blues are one win away from their first-ever Stanley Cup.
The Blues outlasted the Boston Bruins, 2-1, in Game Five of the 2019 Stanley Cup Final on Thursday night in Massachusetts. St. Louis now leads the best-of-seven series, three games to two, and has won two consecutive games.
Zach Sanford (Boston College) set up the Blues' opening goal for his third assist in as many games.
Torey Krug (Michigan State) assisted on Boston's lone goal late in the third period on a delayed penalty, minutes after an uncalled tripping infraction by St. Louis forward Tyler Bozak (Denver) on Boston's Noel Acciari (Providence) along the boards in the Bruins' defensive zone led to the Blues' game-winning goal.
Game 6 is Sunday night in St. Louis (8 p.m. ET, NBC, CBC). If necessary, Game Seven of the NHL championship would be decided in Boston on Wednesday.
