Deb Placey sits down with Doug Armstrong, St. Louis Blues General Manager.  Doug discusses how his father’s time as an NHL linesman influenced his life (1:27) and why he owes his career as a general manager to Bob Clarke and Bob Gainey (9:27). He explains the challenges he faced when first taking the GM job with the St. Louis Blues (13:21) and the magnitude of winning the Stanley Cup for the city of St. Louis in 2018-19 (14:46). He discusses his relationship with Craig Berube (19:07), what the key was to turning around their season to win the Stanley Cup (23:00), why it made sense for the Blues to trade for eventual Conn Smythe winner Ryan O’Reilly (24:40) and how much he cried after winning the Stanley Cup (32:26). He wonders if there will be a Cup “hangover” in 2019-20 and what steps his players and staff has taken to avoid one (35:05).
