ST. LOUIS — Deidre O’Reilly should have watched Game 6 of the Stanley Cup final knowing that, with a St. Louis Blues win, the coveted mug would be coming her way. That’s the plan of St. Louis centre Ryan O’Reilly, whose 99-year-old grandmother is one of his biggest fans. “She sends me quite a few emails, just saying congratulations on the game,” O’Reilly said of his father’s mother, who lives in Seaforth, Ont., the small southern Ontario community where he grew up. Cal O’Reilly spent this season with the American Hockey League’s Iowa Wild, where he has 67 points in 67 games. “I think you realize as a player how hard it is to win and my brother is my best buddy,” Brayden said.
