The St. Louis Blues have had some pretty special players in their history. Despite some ups and downs, the 2010’s were no different.

The St. Louis Blues have had plenty of good players come through their doors. Some players were immediately seen as greats, while others were not fully appreciated until they were gone.

There were plenty examples of both kinds during the decade of the 2010’s. The Blues almost spent the entire decade showing they were cursed.

The Blues had their longest sustained period of greatness during the 2010’s, but looked like they were going to fail to win the highest prize again. We all know they did win in the final year of the decade, but it took some very good players to get them to those lofty heights.

As far as all-time greats, the 2010’s might not have been loaded. Too many careers were just beginning or players were not in the Note for long enough. Some, individual fans will have to decide what they consider to be an all-time great.

Nevertheless, there were no shortage of options for the best of the 2010’s. In fact, this article was meant to be done by early January. It has only taken me six months to get around to trimming it down. Without further ado, here are the best of the 2010’s.
