Since the Blues have embraced the Grow From Within strategy and actually stuck with it since 2005-06, the draft has taken on an importance that wasn't felt within the organization for awhile. Hell, the Blues spent most of the 1990s without a first round pick. But two drafts in particular with decisions surrounding them have dramatically shaped the current squad as well as one other division opponent.

From 1990-95, the Blues were without a first round pick. In 1994 the Blues didn't even have a second round pick. They went without first rounders in 2001 and 2002. During the 1990s, the Blues built mostly through trades and daring free agent signings that helped in contributing some of those first round picks. The few prospects who made it through the system (Rod Brind`Amour, Curtis Joseph, Jim Campbell) were appreciated and gained fan popularity as the few, the proud, the homegrown Blues player.

Now? There are nine players who were on the roster this past season who were drafted by the Blues. For a minute, let's think about two decisions that have shaped both the Blues and the previous two Stanley Cup champions. 

In the 2006 draft, the Blues selected Erik Johnson first overall. He was the best defenseman and we know that the Blues have a propensity to value defenders higher in the draft than forwards. But say they decided that Jonathan Toews was the best forward and would be a better prospect than Johnson (far fetched and not a realistic possibility at the time). The Penguins would most likely have selected Johnson and Jordan Staal would have fallen to the Blackhawks at No. 3. I'm not saying that the fortunes of any of the three teams would have been different the last two years, but it's an interesting daydream.

Then there's the 2007 draft. It was reported that the Blues approached the Blackhawks with a trade offer of their three first round picks for the No. 1 overall selection. They liked Patrick Kane that much and thought the Hawks might value quantity over quality. They didn't bite and Kane became a Hawk. After you stop thinking about how different the Blues and Hawks would look with Kane trading cities, think about who the Blues got in that first round: David Perron, Ian Cole and Lars Eller. And if the Blues don't have a prospect like Eller who everyone admits is NHL ready, would the Canadiens have pulled off the trade of Jaroslav Halak to St. Louis?

So while it's easy to write off the draft as a bunch of 18 year olds getting picked with many of them never panning out, a few key decisions have the ramification of remodeling multiple franchises. You never know.

With that, let's launch the wild conjecture, the 20-second analysis, the daydreaming that the player called to the stage for St. Louis will be called to the ice for St. Louis some time in the next few seasons.

This is your 2010 NHL Draft GDT. Pretend it's the regular season for one night in June.

Predictions for the draft

• Any tall d-man will be compared to Tyler Myers
• A d-man with offensive upside will be compared to Mike Green
• Any all-around d-man will be compared to Duncan Keith
• Any player who was the captain of his team will be said to have “Toews-like” leadership qualities
• A Russian will be drafted and someone will say “KHL” immediately.
• A Euro’s toughness will be questioned

That’s all I got for now …

Regarding toasting in Russia, I knew Ivan was fucked up
No one says “Na zdorovje” as a Russian drinking cheer.

This is increadibly widespread myth. It does mean “To you health”, but they only say it as a reply to “Spasibo” i.e. “Thank you”.

Furthermore, there is no universal drinking cheer in Russian, however paradoxal it might sound.

Sometimes they say “Budem zdorovy” meaning “Let’s stay healthy”. Which sometimes is shortened to just “Budem” (see Ukranian version). or “Chtob vse byli zdorovy”, i.e. “Let everybody be healthy”

I have a good feeling about these picks, and I like the aggressiveness of trading for the second first rounder.

The Blues absolutely rocked this draft

We spent our first draft pick on a dependable player who will develop into a TJ Oshie, and we nabbed a second to gamble on an absolute offensive phenomenon in Tarasenko.

Lars who?

by russkidan on Jun 25, 2010 9:31 PM CDT reply actions  

blues really killed it this year

hopefully we can continue it for the rest of the draft, maybe a huge shot in the dark on mcfarland???? nobody left on the board can match that talent level, and Jarmo has liked headcases in the past (Beach in the top 10 on his board a few years ago)

by dicktrickle on Jun 25, 2010 9:33 PM CDT up reply actions  

predictions

schwartz becomes happy meal’s prodigy, and tarasenko is cam’s new bff. however, the two won’t be seen living together playing nhl11.

by BleedBlue42 on Jun 25, 2010 9:43 PM CDT up reply actions  

I would think no. You’d hope Halak is your goalie for the next 5 years at the very least. Jake Allen will be reaching a prime around then. Joe Fallon and/or Ben Bishop fight for the backup role each year, and there’s always the idea of picking up a vet backup on the cheap via waivers or free agency. They can take a year off and restock the forward depth while throwing in some Dmen too

by Kevin Lorenz on Jun 25, 2010 9:43 PM CDT up reply actions  

I don't remember the guys name

But has the one they were projected to pick before we stole Halak gotten picked yet?

it was a lateral move, both players picked at the same level.
