6-foot-6, 230-pound defenseman Colton Parayko is an imposing presence for the St. Louis Blues circled by many opposing teams as a player to game plan around. Clearly able to insert himself in the more rugged aspects of checking and defending, he’s also equipped with a booming slapshot and has emerged as one of the most valuable and rugged right-shot defensemen in the Western Conference.
