The music world lost a legend on Tuesday afternoon with the news that rockstar Ozzy Osbourne had died. The rock and roll legend was 76 years old.
Osbourne first became famous back in the 1970s as the lead singer of Black Sabbath. The Prince of Darkness played a farewell concert with Black Sabbath on July 5. His "Back to the Beginning" show raised money for charities, including the Cure Parkinson's Trust and children's hospital.
While the death of a musician, let alone a legend, doesn't usually have any ties to the hockey world or the St. Louis Blues, it's different for Osbourne.
The Blues paid tribute to Osbourne with a post on social media on Tuesday, writing "St. Louis loves you, Ozzy. RIP" above a post he made during the 2019 Stanley Cup Final.

Ozzy Osbourne will always be a folk hero in St. Louis, especially due to one of the most iconic mugshot photos of all time.
Osbourne was booked in Shelby County in 1984 while wearing a St. Louis Blues shirt.
