CHICAGO -- Patrik Berglund scored with 1:29 remaining in overtime, and the St. Louis Blues moved closer to the second wild card into the Stanley Cup Playoffs from the Western Conference with a 5-4 win against the Chicago Blackhawks at United Center on Sunday.

"A couple really big come-from-behind wins, but tonight was another level, playing back-to-back games," Blues coach Mike Yeo said. "And you look at what happened in the game, whether it's the disallowed goal, whether it's the goal with under two seconds left. And then to battle back and then to give up another one with just over four minutes left, for our guys to continue to fight the way that they did, pretty impressive."

Berglund's slap shot from the point trickled past Blackhawks goaltender J-F Berube, giving the Blues their second consecutive overtime win. They defeated the New York Rangers 4-3 on Saturday.
