ST. LOUIS -- Another game, another goal for Alexander Steen. Steen scored his NHL-leading 14th goal in 14 games, Brian Elliott stopped 18 shots for his 100th career win and the St. Louis Blues beat the Calgary Flames 3-2 Thursday night. St. Louis has won five of six and is 6-1-1 at home. Calgary has lost four of five and eight of 11. Maxim Lapierre and Vladimir Tarasenko also scored for St. Louis. Elliott, who got the start in place of Jaroslav Halak, improved to 2-0-1 with his second straight strong performance. He stopped 31 shots in a 4-0 win at Florida on Nov. 1. Steen has a point in a career-best nine games in a row. He has scored in all but two contests this season. Despite his sizzling pace, Steen remains focused on the Blues quick 10-2-2 start and not his individual run. "I dont really analyze myself that way," Steen said. "You dont think about that or youll start focusing on the wrong things." Steen converted on a backhand from the slot in the second period to push the lead to 3-0. "He works his butt off and its nice to see him get rewarded," St. Louis defenceman Jordan Leopold said. "Whatever hes doing, hes got to keep doing it." Leopold had two assists in the game, his first points of the season. Steen scored the winning goal in the final minute of a 3-2 win over Winnipeg on Oct. 29 and a 3-2 victory over Chicago on Oct. 9. He became the first St. Louis player to score 14 goals in the first 14 games of a season since Brett Hull had 16 in that span in the 1990-91 campaign. Tim Jackman and Mike Cammalleri scored third-period goals for Calgary. Cammalleri tallied at 14:49 to bring the Flames to within 3-2. But Elliott was able to close down Calgary with some help from a staunch defence, which blocked 18 shots. "They got two on us, but we battled the last few minutes and squeaked it out," Elliott said. Calgary rookie goaltender Reto Berra fell to 1-2 in his third career start. Tarasenko broke an eight-game scoring drought with his fifth of the season on the power play at 3:01 of the opening period. He put home a rebound of a shot by Jay Bouwmeester. Lapierre pushed the lead to 2-0 just over seven minutes later with his first goal as a member of the Blues. "Everything we needed to do, we did in that first period," St. Louis coach Ken Hitchcock said. "We were really going, really on top of our game." Lapierre was suspended five games for a hit on San Joses Dan Boyle on Oct. 15. He got his first points of the season Thursday in his ninth game. "Its been a slow start for me the first three weeks, almost like two training camps," Lapierre said. "Tonight is more like the player that I am." The Flames, who were 0 for 6 on the power play, have failed in their last 28 man-advantage chances. "Id like to buy one," Calgary coach Bob Hartley said of the goal drought. "I know that the guys are working hard. It seems we just cant turn the red light on." Calgary, after taking five first-period penalties, rallied with a solid third-period effort. "A tale of two games," Cammalleri said. "We really didnt push the play early. At some point, we were able to get some momentum." St. Louis defenceman Kevin Shattenkirk picked up an assist in his seventh successive game, the longest such streak in the NHL this season. NOTES: Calgary forward Curtis Glencross is out four to six weeks with an MCL sprain suffered in Tuesdays 5-1 loss at Minnesota. The team is not disclosing which knee is hurt. "One of the two, what does that change?" Hartley said tersely. ... Blues have scored first in their last six games....

While the world No 1 cruised to a final victory over Milos Raonic this weekend, Murray was licking his wounds from a shock elimination. Hell have an immediate chance to put things right at the Miami Open, live on Sky Sports from Wednesday.Here are five talking points from Indian Wells. Murrays struggles nothing to be concerned about Andy Murray admits he failed to deal with Indian Wells conditions For reasons that even Andy Murray struggles to grasp, he can never find his rhythm playing at Indian Wells. Life in the desert is just too far from home for the Dunblane boy, who historically doesnt performs well in the dry, California air.So a shock loss against Federico Delbonis isnt a disaster, by any means. Murray is now has a 25-11 record at Indian Wells, a peculiarly poor record for the world No 2. He has reached five quarter-finals and was the 2009 runner-up, but has crashed out early twice in recent years. He made a point of stringing his racquet differently and adapting his preparation but still fell short of the desired result at a tournament that has never been his friend.But the tour continues relentlessly to Miami, on the opposite coast of America. Its the city where Murray has always been based for his warm weather training and he has a far deeper understanding of the conditions, and a record at the Miami Open to match. He will fly west to east with even fewer fond memories of Indian Wells. Murray out of Indian Wells Andy Murray suffered a shock defeat against world No 53 Federico Delbonis Djokovic still peerless Novak Djokovic poses with the trophy at Indian Wells Weather, playing conditions and opponents do not seem to concern the dominant Djokovic who predictably tore through the tournament to pick up another trophy, and equal more records in the process. His 27th Masters title has equalled Rafael Nadals haul, and a fifth win at Indian Wells sends him clear of Roger Federers four.Having already collected the Australian Open this year, Djokovic will be red-hot favourite to pick up a 28th Masters title this week in Miami, live on Sky Sports. Last year, Djokovic defeated Andy Murray in the Miami final 7-6 (7-3) 4-6 6-0. It remains to be seen how any of the chasing pack, Murray included, can deal with the world No 1. Novak claims Indian Wells win Novak Djokovic won a fifth Indian Wells title against Milos Raonic French Open season brings out best in Nadal Highlights of Nadal v Nishikori in the Indian Wells quarter-finals Two months from the French Open, Rafa Nadal reminded us why he has claimed that Grand Slam an unprecedented nine times.dddddddddddd The Spaniard has struggled to find trophy-winning form in the past two years but, at Indian Wells, delivered some confidence-boosting thrashings to fellow top-10 players.Most impressively he swept aside world No 6 Kei Nishikori in straight sets with the type of athletic display associated when he was at his prime. He also edged a physically gruelling battle against Fernando Verdasco, and fended off match point against Alexander Zverev to put the prodigious teenager back in his place.There is still plenty of room for improvement - Nadal lost in the semi-finals to Djokovic, a sixth consecutive defeat to the world No 1. But the Serb has one-sided head-to-head records against all of his opponents, and a tight first set must give Nadal hope that he can still compete for the biggest prizes.Raonic fulfilling promise Highlights of Milos Raonic v David Goffin from the semi-finals of Indian Wells Milos Raonic, the Indian Wells runner-up, is enjoying a fine 2016 so far. The Canadian has long been touted as an up-and-coming player but the past two years have been stifled by niggling injuries.Raonic reached the Australian Open semi-finals before losing to Murray, and this weekend fell short in California to Djokovic - his only two defeats of a 14-2 year so far. The world No 12 always had a very tall task to topple Djokovic but that was made significantly harder by an apparent injury which hindered his serve-heavy approach. Expect that world ranking to improve if Raonic can continue in this vein of form - although he needs a high-profile victory against one of the worlds top players to signal his intention.Big guns wont have it easy Stan Wawrinka exited early along with other big names The tournament featured several upsets along the way with only Djokovic able to constantly repel inferior opposition. Fellow top players like Murray and Stan Wawrinka crashed out early as a stern reminder that their position as top five ranked players is constantly under threat.As well as Murrays loss to 25-year-old Delbonis, third seed Wawrinka was beaten in the fourth round by 15th seed David Goffin. Not content with one major scalp, Goffin also dumped out former US Open winner Marin Cilic en route to a semi-final finish. Raonic, during his run to the final, knocked out sixth seed Tomas Berdych. Heading to Miami, there are plenty of reasons for the worlds top players to be on their guard with hungry up-and-comers chasing them down.Watch the Miami Open from Wednesday, live on Sky Sports.By purchasing a Sky Sports Day Pass for £6.99 or Sky Sports Week Pass for £10.99, you can enjoy access to all seven Sky Sports channels and watch on a TV with a NOW TV Box or on a range of devices.
