Thanks @TomSea , I was busy yesterday or I would have liked to watch some of the parade.

In 1994, the NY Rangers won the Stanley Cup, I use to hear some commercial or something where one of their fans was saying "The Rangers have won the Stanley Cup ( their first since 1940 ) and now,  I can die and leave this world", it was something like that. It seems a similar wait for Blues fans.

But even per the original six, Boston hasn't really won that many, as the same for the Rangers and Blackhawks though, in recent years with Patrick Kane and the other guy, Chicago went on a bit of a tear with the SC winning 3 I believe, 2010, 2013, 2015.

So, it's tough, I'm glad someone new won the Cup.

I really want to be glad for the Blues. Really, I do. 52 years without winning a Stanley Cup... that's tough. Plus, I think everyone's tired of Boston winning at this point, and St. Louis lost the NFL not too long ago, so they've been a little down on their luck.

But I'm from Western New York... and now I find out one of their top executives is... Brett Hull. Mr. No Goal, Skate-in-the-Crease Brett Hull.

Ugh. Not making this easy on me, are you, Saint Louie?!

If you or any one is interested in watching a video that captures the whole "way it happened in the City" for the 1994 Rangers victory, this is a good video:

Brett Hull was not a Blues player that year but I saw one article where he is considered one of the best Blues players of all time.

No, no, he was on the Dallas Stars.

Very controversial goal scored against @jmyrlefuller 's (apparent team) the Sabres....  He beat Hasek in the 3rd overtime of Game Six of the Finals to win the Cup.

(Hull's skate was inside the crease while the puck was outside the crease.)
