The St. Louis Blues puzzled a lot of fans with their 2019 NHL Entry Draft when they drafted not one, but two goaltenders. On the heels of drafting a goaltender in 2018, having two talented netminders with decent resumes in the minor league system and two NHL goalies as well as one of the best goaltending stories of all time, it made little sense.
However, goaltenders are almost like running backs in the NFL. You can never have too many.
The comparison ends once they are fully established as we see goaltenders getting some of the highest contracts in the league and RB’s are still expendable.
