PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 8 (UPI) -- A fourth-round shootout goal by the Flyers' Mika Pyorala gave Philadelphia a 2-1 overtime win Saturday over the St. Louis Blues.

Pyorala beat Blues goalie Chris Mason, who lost in the shootout after making a huge save on the Flyers' Scott Hartnell in the overtime period to keep the game alive. David Backes had the final shootout opportunity for St. Louis, but goalie Ray Emery made the stop and sealed the win for Philadelphia.

Hartnell scored in regulation time as the Flyers won their fourth straight game. Emery stood tall in the net for Philadelphia, making 30 saves in the win.

The Blues were paced by T.J. Oshie's goal as Mason played a stellar game despite the shootout loss, stopping 35 shots.

St. Louis lost for the fifth time in six games.
