I didn't realize Maroon had left money on the table to play in St. Louis. Regardless, the reaction he gave when asked about scoring in front of his son back in 2016 as well as his son's reaction to his goal last night in joce's post are incredibly powerful.




Gosh dangit, this is just going to make the inevitable loss so much more painful.

“I definitely had an out-of-body experience in the moment,” said Francesca Vangel, the St. Louis native who's engaged to another St. Louisan, Patrick Maroon.

Vangel was entrenched in Section 102 on Tuesday night at Enterprise Center, nine rows up from the Blues' bench. That's where she experienced the excruciation and palpitations of Game 7, which went to overtime, and then – could you believe it? – a second overtime.

“I can't even remember what happened,” Vangel said. “All I know is that I was sitting with Anthony, Patrick's son, and he started sobbing. And then I started crying. And then Molly Bozak started crying and Dayna O'Reilly started crying. It was unreal. It was awesome.”

As for Vangel's reaction to her fiancee's series-winning goal, Anthony was able to shed light on the situation.

“I heard everybody scream and Fran turned around,” Anthony, 10, told reporters from the winning locker room. “And she said: 'IT'S YOUR DAD!'”

It was an evening that started with Charles Glenn, the longtime anthem singer, belting out “The Star Spangled Banner" for possibly the last time. He's retiring and has multiple sclerosis. And the evening ended with the jubilant Glenn swaying through the halls of Enterprise Center -- at least one more playoff round of gigs now on his slate.

“You know what? I am pain-free!” Glenn said. “I am ready. I am so hyped. I am pain-free! … I never had a doubt. I told everybody – 'I'll see 'em next week,' and I meant it. This is a beautiful thing. I loooooove it!”
