ST. LOUIS – Believe it or not, Wednesday marks five years since the St. Louis Blues secured their first Stanley Cup title in franchise history.
The Blues will celebrate the anniversary with several game broadcasts and community events over the next several days. The team will recognize Wednesday as “We Went Blues Day,” honoring a catchphrase from Blues Hall-Of-Famer Brett Hull.
Game Broadcasts
The Blues plan to air all four series-clinching victories from the 2019 Stanley Cup playoffs in their entirety. These include:
First-round Game 6 vs. Winnipeg Jets @ 9 a.m.
Second-round Game 7 vs. Dallas Stars @ 11 a.m.
Western Conference Finals Game 6 vs. San Jose Sharks @ 1 p.m.
Stanley Cup Finals Game 7 vs. Boston Bruins @ 3 p.m.
The marathon of rebroadcast playoff games will run several hours. The Blues says the games will re-air “Over the Air Channel 32, Charter Spectrum 186 [and on] Blues digital platforms.”
Sports radio station 101 ESPN (101.1 FM) will also replay audio from Game 7 at 6 p.m. Wednesday. 101 ESPN is also planning on several feature interviews on the 2019 title run throughout the day, along with prize giveaways for listeners.
