If I have to hear another Bostonian yammer on about "the drought is over...it's been 90 days since the last victory parade" I'll puke. Go Blues!

This is our year.
I remember when the franchise almost moved to Canada and one name prematurely discussed was some form of “Saska-Toons.”
I wish you well! Besides the Isles, the blues are the team i want to see win a Cup the most, it’s a GREAT hockey town.
In fact, my standard for success had sunk to the point of "if we make it to the playoffs at all, it's been a good year."
To have come this far is beyond anything I had expected.
If memory serves.....St. Louis is the only NHL team to have a live organ player at their games. I remember them in every arena. Now, it’s just blaring bad music.
Good luck to you guys. It’s time.
And I’m a Philly fan who remembers the infamous Flyers-Blues Spectrum Rumble back in the early 70s... Ahh, the good old days... :^)
Berube is a former Flyer, I wish him and the Blues well.
It was a great game. Good luck to the Blues. In my household we have a saying and that applies to all sports. “Anyone, but Boston.”
Good luck...those victory parades in Boston are becoming tedious anyway...
I've often speculated that the Blues must have been one of the worst-managed teams for a franchise that had the resources to get a lot of talent. You could make a Hall of Fame roster of former St. Louis Blues who played on some really good teams -- Brett Hull, Adam Oates, Al MacInnis, Chris Pronger, Grant Fuhr, Scott Stevens, Brendan Shanahan, Rod Brind'Amour, Pierre Turgeon, Curtis Joseph, etc. And yet they always seemed to be missing one or two key playoff ingredients and would quietly lose in the first or second round after being one of the top teams in the regular season. In this sense they were almost like the Philadelphia Flyers of the Western Conference.
I'm rooting for your team. One of my best pals is from beantown, and since the Pats and Sox both won championships this past season, he is insufferable.
If the bruins win, I can never visit him again {I'm from the Burgh, so we know how to win and lose with class and dignity, but Boston uggghhhhh}.
GO BLUES!

Yeah... that’s Old School Philly... haha!!
At. All.
The Boston Bruins!
1970 was the year of Bobby Orr's famous Stanley Cup winning goal - against the Blues.
yup. I’m really looking forward to this series. I think we can pay them back for that.
Avs fan rooting for the Blues but honestly believe that Boston will hoist the cup.
A rematch of the Bobby Orr Flying Through the Air Series.
Sweet!
