The Blues liked the Czech defenseman so much that they selected him at No. 16 in 2024 even though he was recovering from multiple injuries. Then he went to the OHL’s Brantford Bulldogs and dealt with more injuries. Blues general manager Doug Armstrong said the goal this season was for him to just get on the ice and stay healthy. Jiricek has done that and more. He has 10 goals and 29 points in 25 games, he made the Czech roster for World Juniors, and the Blues believe he has true No. 1 defenseman potential. — Jeremy Rutherford
