I don't think it would be out of the question that he will be a regular in St.Louis before Dvorsky will be.
I think Dvorsky will be given an opportunity this season. Stenberg might get an opportunity out of camp next year, but they'll tell him something along the lines of, go down to Springfield again and take control, add some muscle, and get NHL ready.

Last year I thought Snuggerud should have left Minnesota and joined the Blues, but going back for his junior season turned out to be a great decision. I think Dvorsky also should spend his D+3 season developing in the AHL. I think he is often behind the play and he’ll only fall further behind at the next level. He and Stenberg could become excellent AHL players next season and join the Blues ready to make an impact.

Yeah but Stenberg will stick before Dvo.
 
Maybe, I expect Stenberg to need a decent amount more size before he sticks at NHL level.
I agree that he needs to add strength. I don’t think he has the frame to add size. But he can certainly continue to strengthen his core.

Strengthening a lower center of gravity is easier than developing the upper body if the frame is not there.

I think this is where Stenberg will shine. I see him as a future puck possession guy. Hard to knock off the puck.
