Late Saturday

Blues 3, Jets 2

Jaden Schwartz scored three times and Jordan Binnington stopped 18 shots to help St. Louis beat Winnipeg in Game 6 of their playoff series Saturday night to advance to the second round.

The Blues will next face the winner of the Dallas-Nashville series, which the Stars lead 3-2.

Bryan Little and Dustin Byfuglien scored for Winnipeg, which tried to rally after falling behind 3-0 early in the third period. Connor Hellebuyck finished with 33 saves.

The Blues became the first home team to win in the series, and advanced to the second round for the third time in four years.

Schwartz, who had only 11 goals in the regular season, has four in the playoffs — the Blues' last four, starting the tiebreaking tally with 15 seconds left in the 3-2 win in Game 5.

Capitals 6, Hurricanes 0

Nicklas Backstrom had two goals and two assists, Alex Ovechkin had a goal and two assists and Braden Holtby stopped all 30 shots he faced to give Washington a 3-2 lead in its playoff series with Carolina.

Washington can advance with a win at Carolina in Game 6 on Monday night.

After scoring five goals in 20 games during the Capitals' Stanley Cup run a year ago that included missing four games with two fractures in his right pointer finger, Backstrom has that many already in these playoffs. Ovechkin assisted on Backstrom's second goal and Tom Wilson's on the power play and added the exclamation point in the rout with a power-play goal in the third.

Brett Connolly also scored and Nic Dowd converted a penalty shot for the Capitals.

Notes

Capitals' Oshie out with broken clavicle

Washington Capitals winger T.J. Oshie is expected to miss the rest of the playoffs after undergoing surgery to repair a broken right clavicle.

The team announced Oshie's surgery Sunday afternoon. Coach Todd Reirden had already called Oshie out indefinitely earlier in the week.

Oshie was injured late in Game 4 at the Carolina Hurricanes on a hit from behind from Warren Foegele. Oshie went right shoulder-first into the boards, and Foegele was given a two-minute minor penalty for boarding.

The 32-year-old had 21 points in 24 games during Washington's run to the Stanley Cup last year. He had 54 points in 69 regular-season games and two points in the first round before being injured.

It's unclear whether Oshie will be ready for training camp, but the Capitals will have to continue in the playoffs without him. They won Saturday and lead their series with Carolina 3-2 with Game 6 on the road Monday and former coach Barry Trotz's New York Islanders waiting in the second round.
