Berube coaches in 500th NHL game

Stanley Cup Champion.
Jack Adams Finalist.
Seventh coach in NHL history to win a championship after taking over midseason.
What else could Craig Berube add to his resume?
Well, turns out there is something else...
On Wednesday, when the Blues met the Minnesota Wild, Berube coached in his 500th NHL game, becoming one of just six individuals in NHL history to coach in 500 or more games while also playing in 1,000 or more.

Berube joins Randy Carlyle, Bob Pulford, Red Kelly, Larry Robinson, and fellow Blues' assistant coach Craig MacTavish as the only coaches in NHL history to accomplish this feat.
Wednesday's game was his 339th game as the Blues Head Coach after coaching 161 games for the Philadelphia Flyers from 2013 to 2015. Berube also played in 1,054 career NHL games, posting 159 points (61 goals, 98 assists) and 3,149 penalty minutes over 17 NHL seasons with the Flyers, Washington Capitals, Calgary Flames, Toronto Maple Leafs and New York Islanders.

Berube's current 338 games coached rank third on the Blues' all-time franchise list behind Joel Quenneville (593) and Ken Hitchcock (413), while his 185 wins as the Blues Head Coach also ranks third in team history (Quenneville, 307, and Hitchcock, 248).
