St. Louis Blues 2009-2010 NHL Preview:
Fans of the St. Louis Blues have to like what they see as the team enters the 2009-2010 NHL season. The Blues made the playoffs last season and captain Eric Brewer should have enough firepower behind him to get them into the 2010 postseason. St. Louis Head Coach Andy Murray needs to steer his team through an uber-competitive Central division, but if he can then the Blues should be in good shape come playoff time.

The St. Louis Blues are one of the hardest teams to predict in the NHL this season. The team has historically been a perennial playoff team until its last two seasons. The St. Louis Blues management has made a coaching change and a long list of off-season personnel changes to put the team back in contention. This season the team has had a strong start in a tough division. A home game at the “House Brett Hull built” this year will be a window into the future of this franchise as fans learn to support a lineup of new faces including Paul Kariya and Keith Tkachuk.
The St. Louis Blues play hockey in the Central Division of the Western Conference of the National Hockey league (NHL). The franchise was founded in 1967 as a part of that year's NHL expansion. The St. Louis Blues was successful at first with a veteran lineup and an owner who doted on the needs of his players. The ‘70s became more f a challenge, however, as changes in the playoff format and division make-up made things tough for the Blues. The St. Louis Blues nearly collapsed under financial strain and then was run on a small budget where players would defer their salaries and play for the good of the team. The team's young talent, however, would leave to greener pastures. The acquisition of Brett Hull in the late ‘80s again made the Blues playoff contenders. The St. Louis Blues would have a long playoff streak - every year from 1980-2004. Today we're witnessing a rebuilding phase for the club with new management, ownership and coaching.
