The Blues have taken a 3-0 series lead for the eighth time in franchise history. In the previous seven, the Blues swept five of them, while they won the other two in five games. In NHL history, teams that hold a 3-0 lead in a best-of-seven series have gone on to win 178 of 182 times. St. Louis has never trailed in this series, while they've carried a lead for just over 50 percent of the total playing time (103:51 minutes with lead). Including the regular season, the Blues have won four in a row and eight of their last 10 games overall against the Wild. Should they complete the sweep on Wednesday, it would be just the second time in team history the Blues sweep a series without trailing at any point. The only previous instance was in the 1969 Quarterfinals against Philadelphia.
