Honestly, I think that the Blues were the winners of this whole draft, especially the first round. They took a quality center in Thomas, then acquired Brayden Schenn by moving their second first round pick, then jumped back into that round to take Klim Kostin, plus added another center in Sundqvist. I think that they did really well to set themselves up for not only next season, but for the next couple of years. Losing their 2018 1st to acquire Schenn might sting a little, but I think that their team right now took a step forward, and the future got brighter for them. I don't really think there's anything else you can ask of them to do, which is why I say they "won" the draft.
