In the history of the NHL, only a handful of players have managed to accumulate 50 penalty minutes in a single game. 6'4" right winger Reed Low, known primarily for his role as an enforcer, did it twice in one season: 57 vs Calgary Flames on February 28, 2002 and 53 vs Detroit Red Wings on December 31, 2002.
In the 2019 Stanley Cup Finals, the Blues defeated the Eastern Conference champion Boston Bruins four games to three to win their first championship, ending the third longest championship drought (51 years) in league history.
Brett Hull's 86 goals in 1990-91 is the third highest single-season total in NHL history.
Louie is a blue polar bear. According to the team website, Louie never felt like he fit in at school. He was always picked last for hockey games (his favorite). When learned about a hockey team called the St. Louis Blues, he knew he had finally found his team since he loved hockey, blues music, and was blue himself!
In 2019, Ryan O'Reilly became the first player to score a goal in four-consecutive Stanley Cup Finals games since Wayne Gretzky in 1985. He was awarded the Conn Smythe Trophy for Stanley Cup Finals MVP after recording a franchise-record 23 playoff points.
Brent Hull's nickname, "the Golden Brett" is a reference to his father Bobby's nickname of "the Golden Jet". Brent (1,391 points) was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2009, joining Bobby (1,170 points) to become the first father-son duo in the Hall.
Lynn Patrick initially served as general manager and head coach. However, he resigned as head coach in late November 1967 after recording a 4-13-2 record. He was replaced by assistant coach Scotty Bowman, who led the team to a winning record for the rest of the season.
Quite possibly the most fearsome Blues enforcer of all time, Bob Gassoff had a knack for going nuts during multi-player pileups and was once described by renowned Broad Street Bully Dave Schultz as "Scary." During the 1975-76 season, Gassoff set a franchise record that still stands today with 306 penalty minutes. He was only 24 years old and four seasons into his career when he was killed in a motorcycle accident.
Berenson scored six goals in a road game against the Philadelphia Flyers, including four over a nine-minute span, making him the first player to score a double hat trick on a road game. His six-goal total was one shy of the all-time NHL record set by Joe Malone in 1920.
