Hi everyone. I returned here as a regular poster a while back, but I still haven't seen where on the User Control Panel I can upload a photograph as a signature.

Can someone here please tell me where I can find that feature?

Hey Robb,
User Control Panel (upper right) > Profile (left column) > Edit Signature (left column)
You can add your signature in that editor.

You can't "upload" a photo for a signature though...but you can link to one. So if you have one on your computer that you want to use, you can upload it to imgur.com or another cloud image site and copy the link to the image and use the 'Img' button within the editor here and display it that way.

Or...if you are having difficulties doing that, you can just email me (cprice12@letsgoblues.com) your signature and I'll manually put in on our server and add it to your signature for you.

Up to you sir.

Good Morning, Good Afternoon, or Good Night...depending on when you are seeing this.

My name is Keith. Recently retired Air Force and a displaced New Englander now calling the St Louis area home. I grew up on the ice, a defensemen at heart, probably due to watching Ray Bourque all those years.

Over my military travels I lived in a lot of places were hockey was non-existent and kind of lost touch with the game.

This year I was fortunate to have a friend who is a season ticket holder invite me to a couple of Blues games. First Blues game attended was the Nine Round shoot out against Dallas in December...what a game. Hard not to be hooked after that.

So I just put my deposit down for season tickets for next year...my house (and family) are all turning Blue...

Happy to join the forum...

Might as well do this. I lurked here last season and made a couple posts. I honestly just follow the Blues from about December or January on after football wraps up, though that's changing as I lose interest in the NFL.

I'm not super knowledgeable, but I'm familiar with our players at the NHL level for the most part.

Otherwise I'm a pretty average 20 something living in the Midwest. Any questions or comments, I'm pretty willing to engage.

Good afternoon, all.

I lived in St. Louis when I was still in elementary school. Heard about the Blues then, but my father wasn't into sports much, so I didn't get the opportunity to pay much attention to hockey in general. Baseball was about the best I could hope for back then.

As an adult, I started getting into hockey, and since Tucson, Arizona didn't have a team, I figured I'd start paying attention to the team from the only other place I've ever lived. Been a fan ever since.

A few years ago, my wife and I started going to college hockey games here, and now my wife has become a huge hockey fan. Since she didn't know any of the NHL teams, I figured it was my sworn duty to introduce her to Blues hockey. Now she's hooked (which means I got two minutes in the penatly box).

Last year, when we made it to the playoffs, I informed my wife that if we made it to the Stanley Cup finals, I'd take my Ford Ranger pickup truck, get it repainted, and add enough graphics to it to make it a Blues Mobile, right here in Arizona. I've decided to extend that indefinitely, so hopefully, my truck will soon have a big blue note on the hood, some music bars with more notes, pucks imbedded in the doors, etc. Looking forward to that day.

Anyway, I figured I'd come in and say hello. So... HELLO!

Let's Go Blues!

Hey Blues Fans!

Long-time hockey fan and current Ph.D. student working on various research projects focused on the NHL. Currently I, along with 2 colleagues, have started a project aimed at identifying rivalries based on fan perceptions and then gauging various economic factors based on those rivalries. It is our hope to use this project to better inform the league and its member teams on the best ways in which to market their contests. We could really use some help with our data, however, and it would be great if you'd be willing to take 5-10 minutes to take the survey we created (see link below). Our goal is to get this information sent to the league as soon as we've gained enough data. Any participation is greatly appreciated

Geez, I do still have a login here - and, the old password still works.

Some of you probably remember me from days and locations past. Before there were all the other cap sites, I had the original. (Back when Yahoo hosted websites. Yes, it was that long ago.) Everything else since is just an imitation of me, albeit more advanced (and on rare occasion, slightly more informative).

Speaking of remembering from days and locations past: in looking at the names here, there's a few familiar faces. I may not know everyone, but I've also moved 4 times since I last passed by here. If you remember me, say hello and refresh my memory if I don't recall who you are; if you have no clue who I am, that's OK too - say hello, we'll get to know each other.

At some point along the way, if we crossed paths there's a decent chance that you lobbed at least one name at me. Some of you ... may have lobbed more than a few rants at me. I probably earned a few of those. In some cases, I probably earned a bunch of them. Shit happens, you learn along the way to pick your battles and that some things just aren't that important - and occasionally, you maybe look back and think to yourself, "I could have handled that better."

We all get older, some get wiser. I know I did the former, I've done my best to do the latter too. No idea how frequently I may be posting, but I'll try to be semi-informative when I can be.

Hi Irish, nice to see you here! Looks like we joined this forum around the same time in 2003 and left for a long time. Always good to have more knowledgeable posters.

Hello Blues fans. This is Monte from the rock band, Monte & The Machine. I couldn’t be more excited about our chances. I was at the Monday Night Miracle and now we’re up 3 games to 2 instead of the other way around. Like the rest of you, I’ve been waiting for this moment my entire life. I was too young (just a baby) to remember our last appearance in 1970. This is our year! Please enjoy my Let’s Go Blues song I wrote for the coolest and soon to be best team in the NHL. Let’s Go Blues!

Hi everyone,

My name is Clinton and I am obsessed with the Stanley Cup. So obsessed that I am studying memory for the this year's Cup as part of my PhD dissertation. I'm not actually a true Blues fan, although I do think they're awesome and I understand what it's like to go so long without a championship (I'm a Cleveland sports fan myself - it's been rough). Also, my wife seems to be in love with Tarasenko, but that's beside the point. Since they're in the Finals, I am trying to recruit Blues fans to participate in a survey in which they share their memories and thoughts on the Blues' playoff run this year. I created a separate post/topic with a description and survey link in the forum discussion. I'd be super grateful if you check it out. Participants can also win a $100 gift for extra motivation! Best of the luck to the Blues in the Finals! Should be an awesome series!

***Wasn't sure how to reach out to forum admins to approve my survey post. I hope this is alright with everyone and I would be happy to provide more information about the research project.

LGB !! I can honestly say that I am a fan since day one. My dad was a hockey fan, and we watched all the Blues games when I was growing up in St Louis, from the very 1st season. I moved to the Pacific NW in the mid 70's, but being so close to Canada I was surprised by the lack of hockey coverage, although that has changed now since the Kraken came to town. I am happy to report that my 7 year old grandson has caught the Blues bug as well after watching them with me on TV. I was fortunate enough to get good seats to their game here in Seattle, and took my grandson to his first hockey game. His favorite player is Jordan Binnington, and when the Blues came out for warm ups they were right in front of us as we had 7th row seats. Jordan looked up and saw my grandson yelling his name, and using his goalie stick flipped a puck over the glass right to him. I don't think I have to tell you what a happy boy he was, and of course I'm now the greatest papa ever!
Happy Boy!
