St. Louis Blues’ X account posted the final result.

Fans shared their reactions to the St. Louis Blues' double OT loss.

"Never seen a collapse as bad as that. Blues had that game won for the first 58 minutes…. I kept screaming at my TV and for the life of me couldn’t figure out why we wouldn’t skate with the puck to chew the clock instead of dumping it for icing everytime in the last 2 minutes," one tweeted.

"Keep Broberg and Fowler rebuild the rest of the blue line. Kyrou should be on the trading block as well… woof," another commented.

"Disgraceful, gave a game away they dominated for 57 minutes." one fan wrote.

Many fans agreed that the Blues need changes after this loss.

"The only person for a 100% certain no St. Louisan can be upset with is Bennington, that boy was ON tonight… The defense lost with 1.6 seconds in the 3rd. Bennington was giving his all!!!," a fan wrote.

"Thats it. That seals the deal. Im no longer a Blues fan. I’ve been a Blues fan since 1920 and a season ticket holder since 1933. I will no longer watch on TV or renew my season tickets. I’m taking my fanhood to Chicago where they actually know how to run a hockey team." another fan reacted.

"I don’t think I can name a single good thing about St. Louis," a fan commented.
