Devan Dubnyk made 17 saves, Jason Pominville and Zach Parise scored second-period goals, and the host Minnesota Wild earned a 3-0 victory over the St. Louis Blues in Game 3 of their N.H.L. Western Conference series. Minnesota leads the best-of-seven series, two games to one.
Mikael Granlund had two assists, Nino Niederreiter added an empty-netter and the Wild had the edge in every way. They committed no penalties.
Jake Allen stopped 21 shots for the Blues, who lost a road playoff game for the ninth straight time.
After getting a hat trick in the Game 2 victory at home for the Blues on Saturday, Vladimir Tarasenko was held without a shot on goal, just as he was in Game 1.
