1982–83 St. Louis Blues season
National Hockey League team season
The 1982–83 St. Louis Blues season was the 16th in franchise history. It involved the team finishing the regular-season with a 25-40-15 record, with a total of 65 points, placing them fourth in the Norris Division. It ended with a Norris Division Semifinal loss to the Chicago Black Hawks in four games.
On January 12, Ralston Purina Company attempted to sell the club to Edmonton Oilers founder Bill Hunter , who had plans to move the team to Saskatoon, Saskatchewan . The NHL would eventually veto the deal, resulting in the team not participating in the Entry Draft . It would pave the way for Harry Ornest to purchase the franchise prior to the following season .
