Blues sign Berube to 3-year extension

The St. Louis Blues signed head coach Craig Berube to a three-year extension through the 2024-25 season, the team announced Wednesday.

"I've enjoyed working with (general manager) Doug Armstrong and (chairman) Tom Stillman, working with the coaching staff and training staff and all the players we have here," Berube said. "Why would I want to go anywhere else? I love it here."

Berube took over the Blues' bench in 2018 and brought the club from last place to a Stanley Cup championship the following spring. It was the first title in franchise history.

The Blues own a 133-72-30 regular-season record and have made the playoffs in each of the past three campaigns with Berube at the helm.

St. Louis is in the thick of the postseason race again this season, currently holding the fourth-best points percentage (.648) in the Western Conference through 44 games.
