Look, we’re not superstitious.

But we might be a little stitious.

We totally understand having a particular way of putting on your equipment, not touching conference trophies before winning the league, and not shaving for the duration of a playoff run.

Any sort of tampering with things that could potentially anger the Hockey Gods are things we avoid completely, which is why this blunder by a St. Louis newspaper has us particularly stressed.

 

 

Don’t get us wrong, it’s totally normal to have these things prepared.

But getting leaked early is definitely a little bit curse-inducing to us, and fans are a little stressed too.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The ads were only available to some of the websites e-subscribers, so hopefully for the Blues, it wasn’t enough to fully hex them completely.
