I LOVE the St. Louis Blues.
Wear the Blue Note! Bleed Blue! Al MacInnis is the second coming! Chris Pronger is the second coming of Al MacInnis!
I skipped my prom to drive 8 hours to watch the Blues whack the Dead Wings in the '91 Norris Division Semifinals (Norris Division! Hello Old School!). Of course, I couldn't get a date, and, being a witness, I couldn't have gone anyway
I listened to grainy, static-heavy KMOX broadcasts from 450 miles away just to hear Dan Kelly shout, "Hull shoots, HE SCORES!" the year that Brett put up 74 goals. (Before he became Judas Hull)
I saw Gino Cavallini BEAT THE $#!+ out of Bob Probert while my Dad lobbed a cup of beer at him from the upper deck. (and gave a public talk the next morning on hospitality...Love ya, dad.)
I fully anticipate the Blues' inevitable 84-0-0-0 record this year, along with a perfect playoff run as we, the only team to make the Stanley Cup Finals in each of the first three years of existence, hoist the Cup.
Go Blues Go!
