Alexander Steen scored the lone goal for the Blues and Brian Elliott, on his 28th birthday, earned his second straight shutout, as the Blues won at Nashville 1-0, Tuesday night.

“Seriously,” Elliott said with a smile. “Yeah, I’ll take that any birthday for sure. Getting a win in this building … they play well here, the crowd gets into it. It’s kind of a gritty win.”
