Part of winning a cup is staying healthy, so the fact that San Jose had so many injuries is not an excuse, its a flaw that makes them not as good as they could be. I don't know why people act like injuries are an excuse for losing. If you don't have tough players you don't have a good team.

    The Blues are really a great example of how to build a team without completely tanking.
    They’ve got their core that they drafted: Schwartz, Tarasenko, Pietrangelo
    A few genius GM moves:
    Schenn, O’Reilly, Parayko
    Useful free agents:
    Perron, Bozak, Maroon
    A bright future:
    Dunn, Thomas, Blais, Kyrou
    Veteran leadership:
    Steen, Bouw, Gunnarsson
    And gritty depth:
    Bortuzzo, Sunny, Barbashev

      And not to mention the hits he's been laying on.

The first half of the season was devastating. Last place in the league. They were frustrated, fighting in practice. Binnington comes in, Tarasenko gets healthy from off season surgery, the rest of the team starts clicking aaaand we're in the SC final?! They took us for one hell of a ride!

They've all just gone that extra step and you could feel it going into the playoffs... I said it from round 1 this year felt different. It IS different. Here we are first time in my lifetime watching the Blues play in JUNE...holy crap! Thank you Armstrong, thank you Berube, thank you Pietrangelo, thank you Steve Ott, thank you Ryan O'Reilly, etc. etc. etc. for getting us HERE. The works isn't over. The story doesn't end here...what an amazing story this is. My prediction: Blues in 6 in front of their home crowd and not a dry eye in the house that night in June... They blow the roof off Enterprise Center! Blues are DEEP. Binnington is not going to stop... Blues win the Stanley Cup. Write it up now. I'm not even disrespecting the Bruins because they are a phenomenal team... I do respect them. But that's how much I believe in the Blues. It's OUR time. We wear them down...war of attrition like Shannon has said. We wear them down and we continue to play good hockey on the road.

      NPC #1141441 Agreed, last fall and winter Allen was the most glaring problem. But, I was talking about over the decades (been a fan since 1970) and it wasn’t always goaltending .
      Hopefully, Allen played well enough at the end of the regular season that he could be traded to a team desperate for goaltending. Might be able to get a 2nd, or 3rd round, draft choice for him. The Blues’ scouts have found some gems in those rounds - see Bennington and Parayko.

      Market street Cup from a Flyers fan, I'm totally on board of the ST Louis Blues securing their first Stanley Cup Championship for the city of ST Louis and their loyal fan base " let's go Blues" and I think it's a blessing in disguise that the Blues will open the series on the road " they are a good road team" SO I'll say the Blues in 6 over the Bruins ! A side note the Flyers trading Schenn for Jiri Lehtera was a criminal trade on the Flyers part because we got nothing in return and I mean NOTHING - it was an unforced error by the Flyers GM at the time Ron Hextall, I bet I can only remember of the guy getting a couple of goals and assist for the Flyers and Lehtera could not skate worth a lick !!

    @edwardofgreene 5 років тому +2

    I fell in love with this team in the era of Sutter, Ramage, Federko, Luit. However the best prior era is unquestionably Pronger, MacInnis, Demitra, coached by Q. In the late 90's early '00s. This was better than the Hull & Oats era by far. (yes there is some overlap there.)
    If they had any kind of goaltending at all we Blues fans would be looking back on some cups!
    I still rank the '99-2000 team as our best ever! (before we pulled a Tampa)
    This year going in felt different. I never had a better feeling going into the playoffs, and said so to whomever would listen. Not strongest most talented team ever (2000 still holds that title), but the one I felt least nervous about.
    Why? Well it just felt like they had their heads in the right place! This is the kind of intangible that drives stats guys crazy. I love stats myself, and second half stats had us trending beautifully.
    In addition to that though we had a team that could weather the negative energy that comes from a fan base that adores you, but has a built in sense of "Oh my gosh how are we going to blow it this year". Having had our hearts broken so many times its a natural thing. With the Cardinals everything can be going wrong and the whole city still has a sense that we can pull through. The team feeds off that. With the Blues everything can be beautiful, but at the first sign of adversity "Oh no, here we go again! We're going to blow it aren't we?" That can be tough for a team to overcome.
    I truly felt THIS was the team that could overcome that. (to the point that I scheduled my vacation around when I thought the Stanley Cup Finals would be). I thought Chief had them level headed. I thought they were having fun as they worked hard. I felt they were immune to the dread "Oh no" feelings. Thankfully I have some old post history to show Im not just making this up now - lol.
    Keep playing that old disco song I hate, but have learned to love. Crowd, keep singing John Denver. Blues keep playing hard believing you can do it. In the past I have overanalyzed things to death. Eff all that. You know what to do with the X's and O's. Just go out, and have some fun doing it!!! Get yourselves a Cup!!!
    Long Live the Note!!

    Sure, there were other more skilled teams out there, but none of them played such a complete team game and were prepared to out-work and out-hit anyone to get what they wanted.

That's a percentage of .865 next is Boston at .838 then Detroit at .811 just a fun thing. The numbers are just my own calculations not anything official so you will excuse me if I missed something.

    I remember 95-96 Blues roster, We got the big signing of Wayne Gretzky that year. We had a lot of potential with Al Mcinnis and a young Pronger. I remember Blues having goal tending injuries in the playoffs and really messing up our chances. It was not our best points in a season I just remember high hopes with some of the stars we had. Very disappointing that year.
    This year really knew we had something special with the signings of Perron and O'Reilly. lots of good building blocks added over the years. Now it is paying off. lets go blues!!!!

    1967-70 were good clubs, they had bad luck in 1970, losing Jacques Plante to an injury when he took a Freddie Stanfield shot directly in the mask, it broke the mask and knocked Jacques out. Plante had been red hot going into that series, but a bad bounce took him out, Glenn Hall put in a great effort in the last two games, but I think the Blues were disheartened losing such a key goalie. It didn't help that they were facing the Bruins with Bobby Orr, Phil Esposito, Johnny Bucyk, Gerry Cheevers, Wayne Cashman, Fred Stanfield and Ken Hodge. The first four are Hall of Famers, and the Rest were real good solid scorers throughout their careers.

    Perhaps I misheard, but the Blues never had a season with Hull, Oates, and MacInnes playing together.
    Oates' final season with the Blues was '91-'92, and MacInnes' first was '94-'95.
    Also, FWIW, the Conference Finals against Colorado in '00 was closer than the 4-1 series loss would indicate. Games 3, 4, and 5 were all decided in OT (Game 3 was 2OT).
