About this episode
This episode discusses the career of Perry Turnbull, a fan-favorite player for the St. Louis Blues during the 1980s.
The Blues picked 2nd in the 1979 NHL entry draft and selected a big (for the time) forward Perry Turnbull. He wore the number 9 jersey and quickly became a favorite of many fans with his scoring touch and rough-and-tumble style of play. After a trade to Montreal, and another to Winnipeg, he returned to the Blues for another tour of duty in 1988. Enjoy!
