ST. LOUIS (AP) — Bryan Rust scored the winning goal 1:16 into overtime to lift the Pittsburgh Penguins to a 3-2 victory over the St. Louis Blues. Marcus Pettersson’s first goal of the season game on a wrist shot at 14:32 of the third period gave Pittsburgh a 2-1 lead. But the Blues came back on Justin Faulk’s goal at 17:33 to tie it. Evgeni Malkin also scored for Pittsburgh and Tristan Jarry made 25 saves to improve to 5-0 in five career games against St. Louis. Pavel Buchnevich had the other goal for St. Louis and Jordan Binnington had 46 saves, but the Blues dropped their fifth straight since the trades of Ryan O’Reilly and Noel Acciari.
