Unless General Manager Doug Armstrong makes a trade, the St. Louis Blues will have nine picks at the 2024 NHL Draft, which will be held June 28-29 at Sphere in Las Vegas.
The Blues’ first pick will be at No. 16 overall – their only pick in the first round after having three first-round selections last summer. The team will have two picks in the second round, third round and seventh round.
Here is the breakdown of picks:
Round 1 – No. 16
Round 2 – No. 48, No. 56 (from TOR)
Round 3 – No. 81, No. 95 (from NYR)
Round 4 – No. 113
Round 5 – No. 145
Round 7 – No. 209, No. 211 (from NYI)
The Blues acquired the additional second-round pick (No. 56) from Toronto in a trade that sent Ryan O’Reilly and Noel Acciari to the Maple Leafs in 2023. The additional third-round pick from the New York Rangers was also acquired in 2023 in a deal that sent Vladimir Tarasenko and Niko Mikkola to New York. The Blues also acquired an additional seventh-round pick from the New York Islanders in the deal for Robert Bortuzzo in December.
The club will not have a sixth-round pick this year – that pick went to the Philadelphia Flyers in last summer’s deal for Kevin Hayes.
