Let's go Blues!

The Stanley Cup is in the building.
The Blues have not won a Stanley cup since their birth in 1967. They played in the finals their first 3 seasons but were swept in each. They never reached the finals since. They were the worst team in hockey on January 3rd this year but now are about to play the 6th game of the best of seven final series against the Boston Bruins leading 3-2. Tonight could be the night.

Let's go Blues!

Wow!!!
Sunday's game didn't go well but the Blues won the final game in Boston.
First Stanley Cup championship in franchise history. They won 4-1
Needless to say, we're jazzed here in the Lou.
From the cellar in January to win it all. WOW!

Truly a win for the books. I was amazed when I heard they had even made it to the finals.

Long overdue. I've been going to games since their birth in '67.
Lots of people were about the think it would never happen even though they were often #1, 2 or 3 during the season.
They've won the President's cup, but it doesn't help to be the best team in the league in the regular season. The second season - playoffs is key.
Maybe its better to start in last place - like this season.

I am happy for you.

They're playing Gloria on the Arch grounds right now at the rally and the end point of the Blues parade down Market street.
The Blues are only the 7th team since 1932 to win a Stanley Cup with a mid season coaching change.
They are also only the 7th team in NHL history to win 3 road games in a final series.
