Yeah, it was actually more than I thought. Forgot Perron was drafted by them, thought Binnington was a college signing (oops) and some later picks playing smaller roles boosted the numbers.

Point still stands, the Blues used a large number of picks (good ones) to bolster their roster along with UFA signings (bozak) before they were contenders. It's not the formula some are touting.
