TRIGGER WARNING: The following video contains scenes that may cause horrible pain for Blues fans and/or vicarious joy for division rivals.
Here we have another infamous team that chokes up in big moments. The so-called “Washington Capitals of the Western Conference”, the Blues live up to their nickname in both past and present. Even with all of the failure, they have been screwed over both by shitty ownership and management.
Here is a brief summary of what Blues fans have had to deal with over the years.

It's over. All of the pain, all of the agony, all of the times the Blues came up short… vindicated.
This legacy of failure is now a historical piece. As it shall remain to remind us all of the struggles it takes for a team to win the Stanley Cup.
Well done, boys. Nothing can take away that cup win now.
St Louis is slowly fading again
Tree to Bruins Fans: "Only a brick wall can stop you. It's name is the Capitals"
"Wash, Rinse, Repeat" can sum up the whole Trump administration for the past 4 years. From the Presidential interference in 2016 to the Mueller Probe to the Ukraine cover-up to the 2020 Election fraud, & the cherry on top of this bullshit cake was the January 6th insurrection where a bunch of vikings & Call of Duty cosplayers stormed the capital to stop the lawful recount of votes.
Who's back here after the Blues got swept by the Avalanche?
They just got swept by the goddamn Avs.
2019 Blues: The pain is over!
2020 Canucks: not so fast
And they finally did it
2019 Stanley Cup flash in the pan status: achieved. Legacy of Failure status: restored.
The Rams franchise itself sold their souls for their Super Bowl.
The city of St. Louis sold theirs for the Stanley Cup.
"You made the playoffs. You get swept by the Avalanche. It's like you were *never there*."
This aged well
Good to see the Blues get curbstomped over and over after they beat the Bruins
The St Louis Blues Clues are looking for clues. Trying to win a Stanley Cup after 2019
Now they hired Peter Chiarelli to be their VP of Hockey Operations, hilarious
6:40 this has aged well, probably.
Who else is here after they lost to the Coyotes?!
5:06
November 19, 2018: "Turns out Mike Yeo is the least of your coaching issues and you go nowhere with him anymore. He's also gone on November 19. Fuck it, let's band-aid ourselves with a real chief in Craig Berube."
It’s like making a legacy of failure video is an anti-curse

I’m 10 and you have to be cussing
Inappropriate content
What I find so interesting about the St. Louis Blues is that from the 1997 through the 2002 playoffs 5 out of the 6 teams that eliminated the Blues in the playoffs ended up winning the Stanley Cup in those respective playoffs. The Red Wings in 1997,1998, and 2002. The Stars in 1999. And the Avalanche in 2001.
Would have been funnier to say after the clip of the Yzerman OT playoff goal, repeat the line from the Bobby Orr goal "Oh yeah That goal"
Hey blues want a cup have one you overarching sack of shits and with a rookie (technically) goalie as well have that too with forner leafs yep and a former buffalo sabre from buffalo yep And not make there again (yet) yep
Good thing that these videos are still up. Its important that zoomer new age fans of teams learn the culture and agony of their chosen franchises before success.
Aged like fine wine
8:15 Does anyone know what music is playing at this timecode? Sounds like something from a Dreamcast game.
hey blues heres a cup
winning after all that suck doesn't erase the fact that St Louis, the state of Missouri ( Misery ) and everyone and everything in it sucks ! worst most backward ass meth addled scumbag fans in the entire world. You got lucky and finally won one. The fact remains, The St Louis Blues Suck! and will always be the worst example of sportsmanship in NHL history. Now crawl back into your trailers and cook up that meth for your pappy, rent is due.
Who’s here after Kadri
Two years later… Rent Free.
Ive been binging these videos Tree, always puts a smile on my face
Guess someone was wrong! Ha!
Hey urinating tree, you should do a video on Peter Lavioulette ( current capitols coach): a legacy of failure
See you all in another 50ish years
Man someone's contact for me to waste my life with them it's so irrelevant now because all of these legacy of failure videos haven't were created in a time before the capitals Nationals or blues won a cup the world series
8:19 😅😅😅
I am starting to think that Urinating Tree is really making these failure videos of the NHL teams because they all have involvements in helping other teams beat the Philadelphia Flyers in Stanly Cup Finals. The reason being that the Maple Leaves gave both the Red Wings of 97 and 98 and the Black Hawks of 2010 key players that defeated the Flyers in 97 and 2010 and Scotty Bowman was involved in both of those Flyers losses as well, either as the coach for the Red Wings, should have mentioned that part when he beat the Blues that year as well, or the Senior Advisor of Hockey Operations for the Black Hawks, and the Flyers lost to him in 1976 ending our winning streak and beginning his four year long reign of terror before the other former Blues coach Al Arbour and his Islanders take his place and start it by beating the Flyers again, in game 6 overtime. The fact that Urinating tree is a die-hard Penguins fan also points to this being the case since they are the bitter rivals of the Flyers. I will thank Urinating Tree for these videos as now it tells me that my home team, the Flyers, will win another Stanly Cup when Scotty Bowman has passed away due to old age since I know he will be involved in another Flyers Stanly Cup Finals loss, hopefully the other NHL teams won't use necromancy to screw us again.
Speaking of failures, if the Flyers don't win again in the next three years, I am pretty sure we are next in the 50 years of failure video, at least we are not the Maple Leafs, just jinxed it probably.
Was looking to the Saskatoon Blues!
4:27 About 23 years too early, Tree.
Before 2019, the Blues tried to fight hard to get the team's 1st Stanley Cup.
1:22 Owned by cat food! 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
And now the Leafs get Ryan O'Reilly from the St Louis Blues Clues. Now the St Louis Blues Clues are now back to being a laughing stock
This Aged like ice cream on a summer day
