It's taken a couple of weeks, and a "do-over" of sorts, but here at last are the Blues' Top Five prospects as we head into the 2016-17 season.
Our initial polling indicated a landslide of support for Finnish import Ville Husso as the Blues' top prospect for the coming season, and another European import drafted two rounds ahead of Husso in 2014 has finished as the runner-up.
Here, in order, are the Blues' top five prospects for the 2016-17 season as voted by "Game Time" readers.
NOTE: This was a rush job, folks... we promise to make the charts much prettier next time...
