St Louis Blues {23rd overall} Western Conference, Central Division
PHO/GM Doug Armstrong has signed the Blues 2023 NHL Entry Draft first-round 10th overall selection Dalibor Dvorsky to a two-way entry-level three-year deal, the Slovakian 18-year-old has impressed at U18, U20 World Juniors, and is a Silver medalist from the Hlinka Gretzky Cup.
The St Louis Blues played .500% Hockey last season, their number one goaltender earned 27 wins and 27 losses, and their backup kept his GAA under four, now the backup has retired and the Blues have 23-year-old, 6’ 5” Joel Hoefer (.905 save percentage) as heir apparent.
The Blues Director of Player Personnel after witnessing the last 12 prospect camps is impressed with this class, the future is bright but patience is required, with the possibility of 2021 NHL Draft first-rounder Zachary Bolduc and Zach Dean (acquired for Mr. Barbashev) entering the Blues lineup.
