ST. LOUIS — In the second-straight shootout for the Carolina Hurricanes, Jussi Jokinen, who had been denied in five shootouts this season, got the winner in a 2-1 shootout win over the St. Louis Blues at Scottrade Center Saturday.

ST. LOUIS — The Carolina Hurricanes play the second game of a back-to-back road set against the St. Louis Blues at Scottrade Center tonight at 8 p.m.

Carolina coach Paul Maurice, who tinkered with the lines in Friday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Dallas Stars, said he's not done tinkering, Saturday.

"I'm still working with [Associate head coach Ron Francis] on it," Maurice said in the afternoon, which the Hurricanes had off. "It's not going to be anything earth-shattering or anything we haven't done before."

Carolina goalie Cam Ward, who saved his team on several occasions Friday, will go again tonight, Maurice said.

ST. LOUIS — Something had to give.

For two periods, neither team could find net.

The Canes even had a 6-2 power play advantage.

Finally, Tuomo Ruutu touched just enough of Eric Staal’s slapshot from the left wing to slip under the goalie midway through the third period, and it was enough for a 1-0 victory over the St. Louis Blues at the Scottrade Center.
