J.T. Miller scored in overtime to lift the visiting New York Rangers past the St. Louis Blues 2-1 Thursday night.

Gabe Perreault scored his first NHL goal for the Rangers, who earned just their second victory in seven games (2-3-2).

Rangers goaltender Igor Shesterkin made 26 saves, including one on Justin Faulk in overtime.

Jonatan Berggren scored his first goal for the Blues since arriving on a waiver claim. Jordan Binnington made 29 saves in defeat.

Playing without top scorer Artemi Panarin — who was sidelined by illness — the Rangers controlled much of the first period while outshooting the Blues 10-5.

Conor Sheary tried to stuff a shot through Binnington 13 seconds into the game, then he shot the rebound wide.

The tight-checking game opened up late in the first period. Pavel Buchnevich tested Shesterkin with a shot from the high slot off the rush.

The Blues moved ahead 1-0 with 62 seconds left in the period. After Dalibor Dvorsky forced a turnover, Berggren came out of the right corner and snapped a shot into the short side of the net.

The Rangers tied the game 6:02 into the second period with a power-play goal. Will Cuylle’s left-point shot caromed in off Perreault’s skate.

Binnington kept the score at 1-1 by stopping Vincent Trocheck’s point-blank shot on another New York power play.

The teams exchanged rushes late in the period, with Miller firing a shot on goal for the Rangers and Colton Parayko answering for the Blues.

The Blues stepped up their pressure in the third period. They outshot the Rangers 11-5 while generating multiple scoring chances.

Buchnevich fired a shot off the tip of Shesterkin’s glove and Logan Mailloux rifled a shot off the top of the goaltender’s shoulder as the game wound toward overtime.
