Glorious: The St. Louis Blues' Historic Quest for the 2019 Stanley Cup

by St. Louis Post-Dispatch

The St. Louis Blues' run to the 2019 Stanley Cup was filled with the kind of twists and turns that defy belief. Near the bottom of the standings in November, the Blues replaced head coach Mike Yeo with Craig Berube. Led by captain Alex Pietrangelo, Ryan O'Reilly, and rookie goaltender Jordan Binnington, St. Louis went from last place in January to winning 30 of their final 45 games to secure a playoff berth. In a thrilling postseason, the Blues prevailed in hard-fought series against the Winnipeg Jets, Dallas Stars, and San Jose Sharks to reach the Stanley Cup Final. Packed with stunning photography and expert analysis from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Glorious takes fans through this unbelievable journey, from the fractured state of the team in November to the whirlwind push to save the season to the final exhilarating minutes against the Boston Bruins. This special commemorative book also includes in-depth profiles of Binnington, Pietrangelo, O'Reilly, David Perron, and other Blues stars.

I have been a fan of the St. Louis Blues for the last 25 years. There have been a lot of ups & downs with this team. I am so happy to have been able to witness them finally winning the Stanley Cup. I was even able to attend three post season games, including Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals, which they won. That game brought me to tears because I was so happy. All the years of wishing, hoping, & praying finally paid off. They were going to the STANLEY CUP FINALS! I was even at Game 6 of the finals, which was a disappointing loss but I knew they'd turn it around for Game 7.

Anyway, this book is wonderful to have as a keepsake. There are great pictures from the games, newspaper articles, & profiles on some of the standout players & staff. It's a must-have for any die-hard fan.

LET'S GO BLUES! 💙💛💙💛
