Last night the St. Louis Blues hoisted the Stanley Cup for the first time in franchise history. Normally, Oilers fans may not have cared about who won the Cup, but for those who watched the game, it was impossible to not crack a smile seeing St Louis native Patrick Maroon celebrating with his son Anthony.
When GM’s and coaches speak about adding more leadership into a locker room, adding a guy like Patrick Maroon is the kind of player I think about. His personality comes through in interviews, he has skill, he plays a tough game, he fights, and it is clear he is incredibly well liked and respected by his teammates.
