The Blues sold out their arena for a game that was played nearly 900 km away

Is the importance of goalie load management undeniable now?



The St. Louis Blues are playing in their first Stanley Cup Final in 49 years and it’s safe to say sports fans in St. Louis have a heavy case of Blues fever.

While the series opened in Boston on Monday night, you would have thought it was actually in St. Louis based on these videos.



Just a reminder that there IS NOT A HOCKEY GAME IN THUS BUILDING TONIGHT pic.twitter.com/oJcivaXT48 — Chris Hrabe (@chrabe) May 28, 2019

This is not footage from an old game, it’s footage from Monday night and even though the game wasn’t at the Enterprise Center the Blues faithful still packed the house and sold out the venue despite the game being played nearly 900 km away.



The game didn’t end the way Blues fans would have liked, but there’s still plenty of time left in the series.



You can bet the building is going to be rocking for Games 3 and 4 in St. Louis.
