Blues stave off elimination 5-4 in OT, narrow gap in series 3-2

The St. Louis Blues staved off elimination from the Colorado Avalanche in Game 5, erasing a 3-0 deficit, and winning the game 5-4 in overtime. Nathan MacKinnon's hat-trick was not enough for the Avs, and Tyler Bozak tallied the game-winning goal. MacKinnon arguably scored one of the better goals in NHL playoff history, but Ville Husso made 30 saves on 34 shots, picking up the win. Darcy Kuemper stopped 25 of 30 shots picking up the loss. Highlights can be seen below.
