    And then 50+ years of pain was heart break was brought to the city of St. Louis 🙂 but there was never a dip in fan support

    I didn’t know all the names of these teams so I looked it up and figured I would share:

    Six franchises were ultimately added: the California Seals (San Francisco – Oakland), Los Angeles Kings, Minnesota North Stars, Philadelphia Flyers, Pittsburgh Penguins, and St. Louis Blues. Had one of the teams been unable to start, a franchise would have then been awarded to Baltimore.

    Isn’t the reason St. Louis got an expansion team was bc the owners of the Blackhawks wanted to unload the Arena?

    Shoutout to the Seals for what remains possibly the worst professional sports logo of all time.
