St. Louis Blues

The St. Louis Blues have been a fixture of the NHL since the league's first major expansion, building one of the most loyal fan bases in hockey at Enterprise Center. Known for decades as perennial playoff participants who could never close out a championship, the Blues finally broke through with an unforgettable worst-to-first title run. Blue Note hockey in St. Louis carries deep roots, a devoted following, and one of the sport's most beloved redemption stories.

Founded in 1967 as part of the NHL's first expansion class, the Blues reached the Stanley Cup Final in each of their first three seasons (1968, 1969, 1970) but lost all three. St. Louis then went 49 years without returning to the Final, before an improbable run from last place in the league in January to Stanley Cup champions in 2019, led by Ryan O'Reilly and goaltender Jordan Binnington, capped one of the most memorable turnarounds in NHL history.
