Blues 1st Rounder ... Who Do You Want? / Who Do You Think They'll Take?

[TBone]

Or do you think they will or should trade the pick?

Let's hear it.

[Pierre McGuire]

I think there is a chance they could trade the pick.
Lakovic or Fiddler. Been watching a lot of Fiddler the last two weeks. He’s extremely undervalued in this draft. I have him as a top 15 player in this draft.

No doubt DA could be up to something.....that means maybe a 10-15% chance.

I'm no expert but short of that with the current and near future outlook on RHD's I see them taking Hensler

Fiddler is the exact type of player I'd love to add: 6'4" RHD who will turn 18 in a couple of weeks.

Then give him a nice, long runway to add strength and hone his game. Has he declared where he'll be playing next year?

He or Hensler would fit the bill and seem to be available in most of the mock drafts.

I wish I could say, but I've not seen them. I just hope that the Blues scouts have shoveled a path across the Canadian parking lots to figure it out.

In general, please give me a guy that will look NHL-bound in 2 years. I don't care what position. Oh, and no injury history--please.

Hoping for one of the three below.

Reschny
Reid
Bear (hopefully falls)

[93]

I don't think we make the pick and it's part of a trade -

[MrPostman01]

Dannil Prokhorov is a man, yes a big man, towering above others at 6'6", a veritable dynamo. If he is the real deal...

[LGB73]

Best RD or C available. Fiddler looks like someone that could be a great get here.

I see a few people have him going in the late teens now and supposedly there is a lot of interest from many teams.

Does the "Nikki Glaser is announcing our pick" almost guarantee we make it? If the Isles were willing to part with Dobson with the 1st being the primary piece (as an example), you have to do that, right? But will there be some reluctance and overarching want to make the pick given the circumstances?

What circumstances? Not wasting Nikki Glaser’s time? She and her bedazzled Jets jersey can deal with it if trading the pick is what’s best for the org.

If the Blues can’t make a deal because of that, everyone in the organization should be fired

[STL fan in MN]

I’m hoping for Reschny. He’s a top-10 talent in this draft IMO but seems to be projected more in the 14-20 range.

Would really like Bear as well. Or Brzustewicz or Hensler or…well I’ve posted my full list so yeah, that’s who I want in the order I want them.

[Cujo's Mask]

Don't get me wrong, I am in complete agreement it should matter not. I just find it curious that we know that is the current plan. Knowing Army, he'd let nothing stand in the way of making a move.

You could just save us all a ton of time and just start your ranting now that in your view the pick is the worst in the draft and Armstrong is destroying the team. We all already know that no matter who they pick you will find an angle where you post it’s a terrible pick.
