The St. Louis Blues say they have their ducks all in a row for the upcoming NHL Entry Draft. That could mean a hundred things, however, since the team picks so late in the draft.
There is no way of knowing which direction they might go with their first selection since so much depends on who is available. You might get a name that was a sure-fire mid-round pick that falls into your lap, or all your main names on your list might have been poached before you make the call.
Drafts are a funny thing. To paraphrase Yoda, from The Empire Strikes Back, always in motion the draft is.
