Why it will always be easy to cheer for Pat Maroon

The satisfaction of a fresh car wash. The way a perfectly made latte, where the espresso still has the jump on the milk, makes you feel. The genuine pleasure of those first few sips of a good bourbon. When you don’t fuck up a steak.
You can add “rooting for Pat Maroon no matter what” to the list.
Maroon is two wins away from participating in his second straight Stanley Cup Final, this time with the Tampa Bay Lightning. A year ago, it was dawning on St. Louis Blues fans that he wouldn’t be coming back. The hometown hero came back to the Lou, helped the Blues win the Cup, and then left for Florida.
