Every Blues 1st Round Pick since 1981 Has Played NHL EXCEPT

[smilinjoefission]

Obviously so far Jiricek hasn't, but Snuggs will, soon, so the only one since Marty Ruff in 1981 is Dominic Bokk. Been more than a few drafts they didn't have a 1st, but still every one of their picks played NHL games but one. That's a pretty solid draft record.

Bokk was used in the trade to acquire Faulk, so even he was useful

And David Rundblad brought us the Tank.

On 10 June 2010, it was announced that Rundblad had signed an entry-level contract with St. Louis.[3] On 25 June 2010, he was acquired by the Ottawa Senators in exchange for the 16th overall pick in 2010, which the Blues used to select Vladimir Tarasenko.

Kid got his name on the Cup, so hat tip to him.

Was Keith Osborne a 1st rounder? There is no way that clown played an NHL game.
I believe he was a first rounder but I can’t remember for sure….plus I’m too lazy to look it up.

Yes he was a first. Took him 12th overall (ahead of Joe Sakic)
He ended up playing 16 NHL games in his career

Even Shawn Belle played some games. Wow...I remember watching him in Juniors. He could skate real well but had no idea what he was doing.

Memories.
