Just days ago, St. Louis Blues prospect Scott Perunovich earned some personal accolades. Now, he has a full-fledged professional contract.
The news of Perunovich getting a contract got lost in the shuffle, given the slightly worrying news that broadcaster John Kelly tested positive for covid-19. Fortunately, he is doing well, so it does not feel selfish to switch the focus back to the ice and the future of the team.
Perunovich has shown a lot of potential in the college ranks at the University of Minnesota-Duluth. He has set several freshman records, been named to several high-profile post-season lists and just the small matter of winning two national championships as well.
