Army seemed to pencil Sundqvist in as 3rd line C in his chat with Strick earlier today.

The St. Louis Blues have spent a lot of draft picks in recent years acquiring big, strong forwards. Since losing their star power forward, David Backes, in 2016; the team has invested a lot into that playing style. Some of their top prospects, like Tage Thompson, are very well balanced power forwards. During the 2017 NHL Entry Draft the Blues went one step further, though. They traded away fan favorite Ryan Reaves, and in exchange got 23-year old Oskar Sundqvist from the Pittsburgh Penguins. The teams also swapped some draft picks.

I wouldn't call Thompson a power forward

If the story is about our PWFs, then I think you need to hear about Dunn, Walman, Kostin, Thomas, Husso, and Kyrou. Also, I wouldn't call Tage a power forward, but whatever.
