When the St. Louis Blues brought Wade Megan up to the NHL in 2016-17, some people might have been scratching their heads as to who this guy was. He was 26 years old and had never really even sniffed a chance at the league.
What was he doing up when the Blues had other guys that were drafted higher? Why was he getting a chance when he had failed to get one in other places, including Florida, where he was drafted?
Well, he was having one heck of a season in the AHL last season.
