With the 26th overall pick, originally from the Tampa Bay Lightning, the Preds have drafted forward Ryker Lee.
Lee — a graduate of Shattuck St. Mary’s — played for the Madison Capitols of the USHL last season, where he accumulated 58 points (31G/38A) in 68 games. He’s committed to play hockey at Michigan State University.
This is a little earlier than many scouts projected Lee going, but EliteProspects evaluates him as a talented puckhandler and great passer. While they note he’s not...

Their 6-2 loss against the Nashville Predators was bad, but their 7-4 loss on Saturday night against the Montreal Canadiens was atrocious. A blown 3-1 lead sl...

This could be a tougher task than the Blues expect. The less said about the Blues’ humbling 6-2 loss to the Nashville Predators on Thursday night the better. Goaltending was a mess of flubber and kicksaves straight to the opposing team. Defense, which has been strong through a bulk of the Blues’ season so far, followed the goaltending, making for discombobulated scene. The offense, which shone through the Blues’ first three games, has been nearly abse...

Instead, Schenn’s goal was the last time the Blues looked remotely interested in scoring for the remainder of the game.
Absolutely Schenn-sational. #s...
