When the Blues Go Marching in: An Illustrated Timeline of St. Louis Blues Hockey, Championship Edition

When I finished the first edition of this book, the Blues had gone 50 seasons without capturing the NHL s ultimate prize. Then came their 51st season, unprecedented and improbable. Nineteen inconsistent games into the 2018-19 schedule, the Blues made a coaching change. Thirty-seven games in, they possessed the fewest points in the 31-team league. Playoffs were a pipe dream, and the Stanley Cup seemed more distant than ever. But steadied by an interim coach, lifted by a rookie goaltender, and sparked by a record winning streak, a storybook unfolded. And with it came a mandate to revisit this volume, to account for the most remarkable episode of all the rags-to-riches tale of a Stanley Cup championship.
