St. Louis blues hockey
is the coolest sport for
fans to enjoy during the winter season.
Regular qualifiers for the National Hockey League playoffs,
the team remains a perennial Stanley Cup hopeful since joining the
league in 1967. Each
year the boys of winter lace up their skates in September and
continue intense play several times a week at home and on the road,
and don’t take them off until they hear the words “game off”
in April or May. Home
games are played at Kiel Center, a 20,000-seat facility in downtown
St. Louis, located across the street from the MetroLink station and
down the block from Union Station.
