    2026 NHL Staff Mock Draft 2.0: This one didn't fall like I was hoping, but it illustrates the predicament the Blues might be in when it gets to pick Nos. 11 and 15. Did I make the right choices for them? Who would you have taken? Sharing this article...

    This place is nuts. Fans are bear-hugging each other with 25 seconds left. They just showed Binnington's mom on Jumbo-tron and she doesn't look nervous. What an atmosphere. Horn sounds. Roof blows off. Gloria blaring. First-ever Stanley Cup win on home ice in franchise history.

    Pat’s 10-year-old son Anthony Maroon: “I was looking at the page with all the players, where they’re from and all that stuff. All I heard was everybody scream. My friend turns around and says, ‘It’s your dad!’ I just started crying.” #stlblues

    Nice gesture by Blues GM Doug Armstrong offering to fly Joel Edmundson’s parents, Bob and Lois, to St. Louis from Manitoba for tomorrow night’s game. They’ll get to see their son receive his Stanley Cup ring on the Blues’ dime. Very respectful of a mom/dad who supported the club.

    Tarasenko said the players saw Kelly Chase crying in the hallway and it almost made them cry. #stlblues

    Berube told the Blues after the game that he ran into Gunnarsson “at the pisser” after the third period and Gunnarsson told him he just needed one more chance. #stlblues

    And we'll wrap up with the money quote from Tarasenko, on hub city life: "We don't go there like for a resort, where we're expecting unbelievable food service, like five-star summer resort. We've going for playing hockey ... I don't need much to live. I just need a bed and food."

    O’Reilly: “This group of guys, we’re legends, we’re legends now. One of the boys said to me, ‘We’re heroes.’ We just brought a cup to the city ... it’s so cool. It’s such an amazing city. They stuck with us through thick and thin this whole year and we got ‘em a Cup now.”

    This quote from Holloway needs to be on a T-shirt: "As soon as I got hit, I knew something was a little off. But then I saw we had a two-on-one, so I couldn’t pass up that opportunity." #stlblues
