The St. Louis Blues are hoping to extend their fantastic 2024-25 campaign into this upcoming year and push the needle even further toward a Stanley Cup. There is one player who was left off an exclusive list from NHL Network for the league's top defensemen.
Colton Parayko, who has been consistent and as sturdy as they come during his 10-year career thus far, was not labeled as a top 20 defenseman in the NHL right now. Whether or not it is fair or foul, that should be some fuel to light an ever hotter fire in 2025-26.
