Hutton stops 48 shots for 9th shutout, Blues beat Jets 2-0
ST. LOUIS — As a backup goalie, Carter Hutton knows he has to make the most of his rare chances to play.
Hutton did just that, making a career-high 48 saves to earn his ninth career shutout as the St. Louis Blues beat the Winnipeg Jets 2-0 Saturday night.
“Anytime we gave up something Hutton was there,” Blues coach Mike Yeo said. “He was sharp right from the start. He was excited to get back in the net.”
Vladimir Tarasenko and Vince Dunn scored for St. Louis, which snapped a two-game skid.
