Happy Blues
Not all was championship-less in St. Louis in 2019. While the Cardinals fell short in the NLCS, the city still had a first-time champ just down the street. Although the St. Louis Blues started in the cellar of the Western Conference, the team held it together. They improved all season, eventually (shockingly) beating the Boston Bruins—including an incredible Game 7 win on the road—to earn the franchise’s first Stanley Cup.
