ST. LOUIS -- Pavel Buchnevich scored his first Stanley Cup Playoff hat trick and had an assist for the St. Louis Blues in a 7-2 win against the Winnipeg Jets in Game 3 of the Western Conference First Round at Enterprise Center on Thursday.

In December, Blues GM Doug Armstrong picked up the 15-year veteran and a fourth-round pick in 2027 in exchange for prospect Tim Jeremie Biakabutuka and a second-round pick in 2027. The Ducks also retained some of Fowler’s salary, giving him a $4 million AAV this season and in the final year of his contract in 2025-26.
