E150: Did the Blues play the NHL Draft right or did they waste their picks?
About this episode
The episode discusses the St. Louis Blues' decisions during the 2026 NHL Draft and the implications of their trades and picks.
After the first round of the 2026 NHL Draft, the Blues walked away with some big changes to their forward core: they drafted Tynan Lawrence and Maddox Dagenais and traded 2 of their picks to the Anaheim Ducks for Mason McTavish. On day 2 of the draft, the Blues traded 2 of their third round picks to the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for Brandon Carlo. Reactions to what the Blues have done have been mixed - did they waste their draft capital or did they make some good moves? What can we expect from Lawrence and Dagenais, the newest Blues prospects?
