The 2 owners of the company I work for are both part of the ownership group of the St. Louis Blues! It showed up as a party favor. They are throwing a party for being on the forbes top 100 places to work list for the 8th year in a row.

Congratulations! That’s so cool, and that first pic is classic as it appears the “ keeper of the cup “ has had enough 🤣

I understand there is a dedicated "guy" who travels with the cup and is responsible for its well being. Little surprised at all the over head hoisting.

The guy hoisting the cup is the Blues President Chris Zimmerman.

And yes the guy standing by it with the nhl shirt is the guy that follows the cup around

Very interesting. Tell them you want to give Stanley a ride in your new boat.

I want to personally thank your Sabres for Ryan O’Reiley. I’m Sorry for the half a pack of gum and draft pick you got for him 😜

Ha! A half pack of gum would've been better than Berglund and Sobotka. And thanks to the Blues winning the cup they only got the 31st pick!

Pretty cool you got to see it! 8-)

It is. I was standing there with him before he took it into our auditorium. He said this thing is heavy can I set it here. I said uh that’s a trash can but go on ahead :lol:
