My beloved St. Louis Blues finally win a Stanley Cup after 52 years of trying!
Spent $173 on Shop.nhl.com to get commemorative stuff tonight. Couldn’t help myself. Gonna replace my aged Blues generic license plate frame with a new SC Champions one. Among other stuff.
The parade Saturday is gonna be absolutely crazy and crowded, think i will pass on attending. Plus it may rain and i have tickets to see Dark Phoenix that will run past the parade start time. _________________ ON DECK/IN THE WORKS: too many started to list...

Always nice to see a new team win BIG -- in any sport. If only NASCAR could do that this year, instead of the Usual Suspects... |

Congrats to the Blues! They are a big tough resilient team and deserved to win.
Besides, the Bruins have won a few already. I witnessed the great Bobby Orr skate with the Stanley Cup around MSG back in '72 against my Rangers. Although disappointed, it was a very special sight to see. _________________ Forum member since 10/25/2010 |

Even though i'm a lightning fan, i gotta say nothing matches the intensity and excitement of playoff hockey. Congratulations to the blues on a well earned championship.

I'm with 18 degrees, our beloved team won. Worst to best. Hardly seems possible, brought tears to my eye. Kinda didn't think I would see it in my lifetime. The parade and celebration were fantastic.
Interestingly, we didn't set fire to anything, have multiple arrests or any mayhem. Says a lot for our city.
I have told many friends for years, St. Louis is a Hockey town with a baseball problem.
