St. Louis has such a weird history with the playoffs.

Their best years were their first 3 in existence. They made Stanley Cup finals 3 years in a row...and were swept all 3 years.

And that's about as good as it got.

And yet, they've consistently been a really solid team, as they've failed to qualify for the playoffs only 8 times since they joined the league in 67-68 (thats almost half a century!). At one point, they had a 25 year streak of making the playoffs...and only made the Conference Finals twice in that span (and haven't been back since).

They are great at getting in...and then not doing anything.
