With the New York Rangers and Detroit Red Wings reaching their centennial season in 2025-26, each of the original six teams have a long-standing history. The St. Louis Blues, who have a while to go before their centennial season in 2067-68, hold a unique fact with the Hockey Hall of Fame.
Did you know that outside of the original six teams, the Blues have the seventh-most players inducted in the Hall of Fame? It is a wide margin, but they have 26 members.
Legends who have worn the Blue Note
Brett Hull, Al McInnis, Adam Oates, Bernie Federko, and Chris Pronger are just a few of the names enshrined in the Hall of Fame in Toronto. Wayne Gretzky had that short stint as a part of the Blues, as well as Scott Stevens and Dale Hawerchuk.
In 58 seasons, the Blues have gone out and brought in incredible players and have turned out to be very successful. One Blues star, Tyler Bozak, just missed his chance to be inducted this past season, but expect him to get his flowers eventually.
Future inductees currently playing with the Blues
Currently, there are a number of players that could one day see themselves as the 27th, 28th, 29th, etc. members of the Hockey Hall of Fame. This will be a long time from now, but there are some good choices here.
Of course, the guaranteed one is going to be goaltender Jordan Binnington. His heroics in game seven against the Boston Bruins in the 2019 Stanley Cup Final should warrant his nomination already. But, if he can finish out his career with the Blues and be a lifer, his name will not only be displayed in Toronto but in the rafters of the Enterprise Center.
Robert Thomas and Brayden Schenn are two more names that have a better chance of happening than not. Both have been pivotal members of this organization for a good bit of time, and both are the current leaders of this team. Colton Parayko is a 50/50 shot, depending on the Blues' chances of winning another Stanley Cup in his tenure.
