Texier, 24, was originally drafted by Columbus, No. 45 overall, in 2017.

Last season, the 6-foot-1, 201-pound forward appeared in 78 regular-season games, setting single-season career highs in goals (12), assists (18), and points (30). Overall, the Saint-Martin-d’Heres, France, native has dressed in 201 career NHL regular-season games, accumulating 79 points (34 goals, 45 assists) and 82 penalty minutes.
His numbers are actually pretty decent for what his role will be.
And only 24 so still room to get better as well.

Pronman's final mock. Jett is a lot like what the Blues went for last year. A two way, high compete forward.

16. St. Louis Blues: Adam Jiricek, D, Plzen (CZECHIA)
With the Blues likely in position to take one of the second tier of defenders in Solberg or Jiricek and that being a pressing need for them it seems like a good chance that one of those two will be their pick here. I’ve heard Jett Luchanko’s name mentioned here by some as a possibility too.

He was looked upon as a potential top 6 forward in Columbus. That was the hope. Former 2nd rd pick. Has 200 NHL games under his belt. It’s worth a shot for that price. I like the move.

How bout now?
4 defensemen I'd lose my mind if they got are still on the board, 7 picks before us. Things are getting interesting.
The Devils have been dangling 10 for weeks....
Apparently draft day trades are illegal now though. 0 last year and so far 0 this year too.

Super lame. Last year was surprising, this year they all happened before today.
...but whatever, the Blues won the Cup!!!!!
