St. Louis picked up an assist on the first goal, then scored his ninth of the season at 4:14 of the second to reach the milestone.

Less than a minute into the penalty kill, Stepan led a 3-on-1 rush and sent a pass from the left wing into the right circle for Nash, who one-timed a shot into the net for his 16th goal of the season.
