The St. Louis Blues have had their share of owners in a relatively short history of the team, compared to other franchises. Each one had their own idea of what success meant.
Some of them focused more on the bottom line, so if butts were in seats, they did not care as much about the on ice product. Others went overboard by spending as much as they could on the team, often throwing money at every problem, and the gas ran out before anything significant could happen.
However, when you look at the overall picture, Tom Stillman and his other local investors might be the best owners this franchise has had.
