The Washington Capitals’ reign as Stanley Cup champions officially ended Wednesday night on the one-year anniversary of their Championship Parade. The St. Louis Blues defeated the Boston Bruins 4-1 in Game Seven to win the Stanley Cup for the first time in their history. Former Capitals Craig Berube and Zach Sanford will now get their names on the Stanley Cup.
After the game, the Capitals congratulated the Blues on their victory on Twitter.
Congratulations to the 2019 #StanleyCup Champion @StLouisBlues and the city of St. Louis
You’ll never forget your first @StanleyCup
Promise.

It took the Blues 52 years to win their first Stanley Cup.
They say good things come to those who wait.
52 years later… @StLouisBlues I’m all yours.
