"Dave Steward was a key member of the St. Louis-based ownership group that we assembled in 2012,» said Stillman in Thursday's release. «His support has been steadfast ever since, and we are grateful for Dave's commitment to the Blues and to St. Louis."
"We are pleased to welcome Michael Riney to our ownership group,» Stillman stated. «Like all members of the group, Michael has a passion for the Blues and a strong commitment to St. Louis. The rest of the group will remain the same as we work toward a successful 2024-25 season."
