It goes to show the improvements, not only to the on-ice product but also the landscape of where the team plays and everything surrounding the Blues when chairman and CEO of Summit Distributing, Tom Stillman and partners purchased majority ownership of the franchise, along with local partners Jerald Kent, Donn Lux, James Cooper, Jo Ann Taylor-Kindle, Steve Maritz, Edward Potter, Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Taylor, David Steward, Jim Kavanaugh, John Danforth, Christopher Danforth, Jim Johnson III, Scott McCuaig, John Ross, Jr., Tom Schlafly on May 9, 2012 for an estimated $130 million.
