It's not on the Q site yet but according to this Jaskin has been suspended 3 games.

4 points tonight in his first game back from the 3 game suspension (1G, 3A). He's now just 5 points behind the QMJHL scoring leader, who has played in 15 more games (although Drouin is 4 points ahead of Jaskin and has played in 3 less games than Jaskin) - the scoring race may be down to these 2 at the end of the season.
Jaskin was nominated(along with Drouin and Currie) for MVP of the QMJHL.
I dont see how it could end up being Currie with Duffy having just as many points, and with the amount of skill on the Moose, its hard to argue who truly is their most important player.
Jaskin on the other hand is hands down the most important player on Moncton. They're a different team without him. I asked a few of my buddies who currently play in the Q, and they have all said Jaskin is without a doubt the best player they have ever had to play against in their life. They just hope that he wont score when theyre on the ice.
He has truly been a treat to watch this year.

As a Blues fan that makes me very happy to hear. I don't really get to see him much. I just hope he can be impact player in the NHL.
You have plenty to be excited about. I dont see him ever being a true gamebreaker in the NHL, but I see many similarities between him and Backes. Could be a Backes-light.

Jaskin draws alot of similarities to Marian Hossa and Jagr. Danny Flynn has also compared him to Hossa.
In playing style yes, not in talent level though. He just simply will not be able to pull of the majority of power moves that he uses now once he reaches the NHL. He is just bigger and stronger than most players in the Q now, while also being one of the most skilled. He does not have the hands that Jagr had/has, nor the two-way play of Hossa.
I see him being a 50-60 point PWF in the NHL. Luckily for him hes the type of player who, if his skills do not translate to being a high point producer, could easily change his game to being a 30-40 point 3rd liner as he is big and strong and plays in the dirty areas.
One of my favorite players I've ever enjoyed watching from the Q.

Shoulder day-to-day but it's more of a precautionary thing to let him rest before playoffs..

No, it'll be done shortly. There are some issues with Slavia that have to be resolved before we can get a deal done.
Jaskin will be joining the Blues on their upcoming road trip (still waiting on his immigration paperwork to get taken care of).

all day has been going by so slow cause ive been pumped about this game since they announced he was in the lineup... cant wait!!!!

seriously, that turned out to be a very good pick for the Blues...he came to juniors and basically tore it up. with Ty Rattie having tore up juniors for the last couple of years, and Tarasenko starting for the Blues this year, the future looks pretty good up front for the St. Louis....

Id say he is likely AHL bound unless the Blues trade one or two of their forwards.

He will getsome games in early in the season and go back down to Peoria, if we have injuries he will be first called up unless Rattie is playing better.

Jaskin has started to see some steady playing time with the Blues this season
How do you think he has looked?
