Some people might ask why pick the 2003 NHL Draft to change for the St. Louis Blues. Well, there are a couple reasons. First and foremost, it was one of the deeper drafts in recent times. Even the final round of the draft ended up having two All-Stars and at least four NHL players.
Also, I attended that draft in Nashville, Tennessee. While my friend and I went into the draft with no prep and were bored out of our minds halfway through the first round, it was still an experience and fun to look back on considering the amount of names that came through it.
