More bullets in the chamber sure but despite drafting 13th 14th and 15th in a row in 2015 they didn't draft the guys who went 16th 17th and 18th, Matt Barzel, Kyle Connor and Thomas Chabot, three emerging stars. Miss miss miss.
And for all the talk about how to build a team, all the derisive comments, the Blues didn't have much home grown talent on the roster. St. Louius spent major draft picks (Scheen, O'Reily) and older free agent dollars (Bozak) to do it.
Curious.

Schwartz, Tarasenko, Perron, Pietrangelo, Fabbri and Robert Thomas are all 1st round draft picks.
Barbashev, Jake Allen and Edmundson are 2nd round picks.
Parayko and Binnington are 3rd round picks.
Sammy Blais, 6th round pick.
