The 2019–20 St. Louis Blues season was the 53rd season for the National Hockey League franchise that was established on June 5, 1967.^[1] The Blues entered the season as the defending Stanley Cup champions for the first time in franchise history.

The season was suspended by the league officials on March 12, 2020, after several other professional and collegiate sports organizations followed suit as a result of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.^[2]^[3] On May 26, the NHL regular season was officially declared over, with the remaining games being cancelled.^[4] The Blues advanced to the playoffs and played to play in a round-robin tournament, to determine the team's seed for the playoffs. The Blues faced the Vancouver Canucks in the first round, but were defeated in six games.^[5]

Off-season[]

On June 24, 2019, head coach Craig Berube signed a three-year contract with the Blues. Berube had been the interim head coach since November 2018 and helped the Blues win the Stanley Cup in the previous season.^[6]
