St. Louis Blues Raise Stanley Cup Championship Banner
The rafters at Enterprise Center have gained what St. Louis hockey fans have long sought — a Stanley Cup championship banner.
In a pregame ceremony prior to Wednesday night’s home opener, St. Louis Blues fans roared as the team raised the banner before a capacity crowd.
The ceremony began with narrated videos containing highlights of the hockey team’s historic run. Many of the videos featured players hoisting the Cup during the postgame ceremony in Boston after Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final, at the championship parade down Market Street and individually, when each player had their own day to spend with the trophy.
In a darkened arena and with a dramatic puff of dry-ice smoke the banner began its slow ascent accompanied by the familiarity of “Gloria,” the song that became last season’s anthem.
