The Stars, the No. 2 seed from the Central Division, would have home ice-advantage in the best-of-7 series against the Blues, the second wild card from the West, but would begin on the road against the Jets, the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference. That series is tied with Game 7 on Sunday (8 p.m. ET; ABC, ESPN+, SN, TVAS).

St. Louis series have all had the same result. The home team won. And the Blues need that trend to continue Friday night, May 2, or else this Western Conference series is over.

The Winnipeg Jets won't have forward Mark Scheifele in the lineup on Friday night when they hope to eliminate the St. Louis Blues with a Game 6 road victory.
