The St. Louis Blues raised the bar pretty high in their 2024-25 campaign, and it will be tough to try and beat it. What kind of benchmark is a successful season in 2025-26?
Let's discuss a couple of scenarios.
Better Record?
Last season, the Blues snuck into the playoffs via the final wildcard spot in the Western Conference. They had a record of 44-30-8 for 96 points. The highlights of the year included the 12-game winning streak down the stretch, setting a new franchise record, and also sending this team into the playoffs.
One benchmark to reach is to have a better record than last season.
