from Mike Zeisberger of NHL.com,

Pat Maroon is a St. Louis native and loves playing at home. Jay Bouwmeester said he feels like one, having played the past seven seasons there.

The chance to hoist the Stanley Cup with the St. Louis Blues is one they don't want to let slip away. They'll be presented that opportunity with a win against the Boston Bruins in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final at TD Garden on Wednesday (8 p.m. ET; NBC, CBC, SN, TVAS).

"This is what you dream about since I was a kid playing in the basement with my brothers, pretending to help the Blues go all the way," Maroon said Tuesday. "I've waited my entire life for this."

Bouwmeester has waited his entire career for this moment. Patrick Marleau (1,657) and Joe Thornton (1,566) are the only active players who have played more NHL games than the 35-year-old defenseman (1,184) without winning the Cup.
