The Blues also dealt away Paul Stastny to the Winnipeg Jets at the trade deadline for their 1st round pick as they won only 23 games of their remaining 51, but they still had a chance to get into the playoffs on the last day of their season against the Colorado Avalanche. After losing Vladimir Tarasenko to injury during the game, the Blues lost to the Avalanche 5—2 as they missed the playoffs for the first time in seven years. Louis native Pat Maroon , and goaltender Chad Johnson.
On May 29, the Blues won a Stanley Cup Finals series game for the first time in franchise history after getting swept in three previous series 1968—1970 , when they defeated the Boston Bruins 3—2 in overtime. However, they would continue their strong play even despite being plagued with various other injuries, consistently remaining at or near the top of the Western Conference. On February 12, 2020, the Blues suffered another loss as defenseman Jay Bouwmeester suddenly collapsed on the bench in a game against the Anaheim Ducks , and would not come back to play again in the season. The game against Anaheim was suspended during the first period and postponed to March 11. The Blues had remained in strong form throughout the season, finishing first in the Western Conference and second in the NHL. However, as the season was put on pause due to the pandemic, no team would play the full 82 games. Instead, a Return to Play tournament was organized, starting in August 2020. In the Round Robin tournament for the four top-seeded teams of the conference, the Blues failed to get a win, and thus despite winning the regular season conference title, they ended up being the fourth seed in the West. In the first round of the playoffs, they faced the Vancouver Canucks , to whom they lost in six games.
On September 2, 2020, the Blues traded goaltender Jake Allen , who had spent 10 years in the Blues organization, to the Montreal Canadiens. From 1967 until 1994, the team played in the St. Louis Arena known as The Checkerdome from 1977 until 1983 , where the old St. Louis Eagles played, and which the original owners had to buy as a condition of the 1967 NHL expansion. Attendance The St. Louis Blues are one of the more successful NHL teams in terms of attendance. In 2009—10 , despite not having a playoff year, the Blues had an average attendance of 18,883 98. Jerseys Before the 2014—15 season, the team released new home and away jerseys that were similar to those worn in the early 2000s. Oshie left models the blue home jersey, while Alex Pietrangelo models the white road jersey.
The Blues have worn blue and white jerseys with the famous "Blue Note" crest and gold accents since their inception in 1967. From 1967 to 1984, the Blues jerseys featured a lighter shade of blue along with contrasting shoulder yoke and stripes. The blue jerseys lacked the contrasting yoke until 1979. In 1984, the Blues drastically redesigned their look, adding red and darkening the shade of blue. Initially, the front of the jersey featured the team name above the crest logo, but was removed in 1987. In addition, the contrasting shoulder yoke was removed. For the 1994—95 season, the Blues introduced a more radical jersey set, featuring red in a more prominent role. The jersey introduced the short-lived trumpet logo on the shoulders and featured thin diagonal stripes on the tail and sleeves. The bottom of the numbers taper off to give way to the aforementioned stripes.
The jersey brought back the contrasting shoulder yoke and returned to the lighter blue of previous eras. It also replaced red with navy blue as an accent color. A corresponding blue jersey was introduced the following season, thus retiring the previous set. The Blues simplified their design, with only the blue note logo on the front; there were no third jerseys for the season. The Blues announced plans for a navy third jersey featuring a new logo, with the Gateway Arch with the Blue Note superimposed over it inside a circle with the words "St. Louis" above and "Blues" below. While they kept the Reebok Edge-era template, they brought back the 1998—2007 look. The navy blue third jersey was kept without any alterations, before it was retired prior the 2016—17 season. The uniforms, which had the team name written around the primitive "blue note" logo along with contrasting stripes, had a gold base.
The current logo shown in the infobox , is similar, but with the slightly darker shade of blue used since 1984. Louis Blues. Louie is the mascot of the St. He was introduced on October 10, 2007. Buck elected to leave the booth after one season, though, and was replaced by another famed announcer in Dan Kelly. KMOX is a 50,000-watt clear-channel station that reaches almost all of North America at night, allowing Kelly to become a celebrity in both the United States and Canada. From 1979 to 1981, the radio and television broadcasts were separated for the first time since the inaugural season, with Kelly doing the radio broadcasts and Eli Gold hired to do the television. In 1985, Ornest, wanting more broadcast revenue, put the radio rights up for bid. However, the station was never financially competitive in the market.
Additionally, fans complained they could not hear the station at night it had to readjust its coverage due to a glut of clear channels on adjacent frequencies. Dan Kelly continued to broadcast the games on radio, but he was diagnosed with lung cancer in October 1988 and died on February 10, 1989. Furthermore, Ken Wilson became St. The long-term partnership between KMOX and the Blues had its problems, however, namely during spring when the ever-popular St. Louis Cardinals began their season. Blues games, many of which were crucial to playoff berths, would often be pre-empted for spring training coverage. However, in an ironic twist the Cards purchased a controlling interest in KTRS in 2005, and once again preferred to air preseason baseball over regular season ice hockey. Chris Kerber and Joe Vitale are the current radio broadcast team. Traditions The Blues have a tradition of live organ music.

St. Louis Blues
Вратарь «Сент-Луиса» пропустил курьезнейшую шайбу после заброса по борту из центральной зоны. Российский форвард Владимир Тарасенко играет за американскую хоккейную команду «Сент-Луис Блюз» уже почти 10 лет – он перешел в НХЛ (Национальную хоккейную лигу) из питерского «СКА» в 2013 году.

Однако его действия, особенно обмены Брэндана Шэнахэна и Крэйга Дженни, вызвали негодование со стороны болельщиков команды.
В 1996 году под опалу Кинэна попал даже Бретт Халл , лишённый звания капитана. В плей-офф команда снова выбыла на ранней стадии, проиграв в полуфинале конференции « Детройту ». Сразу после завершения сезона Гретцки подписал контракт с « Нью-Йорк Рейнджерс ».
Хозяева клуба попросили Рона Кэрона, к тому времени уже ушедшего на пенсию, вернуться на время в команду и помочь в её восстановлении. С помощью Кэрона на пост главного тренера был приглашён Джоэль Кенневилль , а на пост менеджера — Ларри Пли. Тем не менее, с помощью надёжной игры защитников Криса Пронгера и Эла Макинниса , а также результативной игре нападающих Пьера Тарджона и Павола Демитры регулярный чемпионат снова получился неплохим.
Утешением болельщикам стало признание Пронгера лучшим хоккеистом НХЛ.

Выглядит это так, словно марафонец из последних сил ради приличия бежит за лидером, понимая, что сил на подвиг точно не хватит. У «Миннесоты» все последние результаты сводятся к одному правилу: Капризов набирает очки — «Уайлд» тоже. Два дня назад «Миннесота» отдала, по сути, решающий матч в битве за плей-офф, без шансов сгорев «Лос-Анджелесу» — 0:6. Игра с «Сент-Луисом», кажется, должна была стать финальной в этой марафонской гонке.
Проигрываешь «Блюз» — даже математические шансы становятся призрачными. Первые десять минут матч шел практически без моментов, но «Миннесота» на ровном месте получила контратаку, которая после нескольких рикошетов превратилась в гол. От такого развития событий психанул даже опытнейший Флери, со злостью выкинувший шайбу из собственных ворот.
Завершал атаку уже в пустые ворота Маркус Йоханссон. Еще через семь минут о себе напомнил Кирилл Капризов: россиянин вывел «1 в 0» Марко Росси. Забавно, что и этот гол случился в контратаке, а за несколько секунд до него Джейк Нейборс мог броском в пустые ворота завершать атаку «Сент-Луиса». Уже очень скоро на льду встретились два россиянина. Павел Бучневич воспользовался потерей Марата Хуснутдинова и мгновенно выдал пас на Джордана Кайру — 2:2. На второй перерыв команды все же уходили при счете 3:2 в пользу «Уайлд».
Капризов, Зуккарелло и Росси организовали крутую трехходовку, которая завершилась броском австрийца уже в пустые ворота. Третий период начался с гола «Сент-Луиса».
