In one corner of the locker room Thursday night, one Blues player stood at his stall posing for pictures with his “milestone” puck.
It had been almost three years since defenseman Mike Weaver lit the lamp in the NHL.
He took a healthy dose of ribbing from teammates after his first goal in 185 games helped the Blues to a 4-3 victory over the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden.
In another corner of the locker room was a similar scene, although this one a bit more monumental.
Paul Kariya netted his 16th goal of the season  with 11 minutes 36 seconds remaining in the third period â€â€and not only did it turn out to be the game winner, it was the 400th of Kariyas career.
