27. St. Louis Blues – Kole Lind (LW, Kelowna Rockets, WHL)

The Blues took Valimaki with their first pick, so with their second they take a skilled forward in Lind. He put up 87 points through 70 games this season for the Blues.

If developed correctly, the Shaunavon native could turn out to be a solid second line winger for the Blues.
