Prospect Dmitrij Jaskin could soon be joining the Blues. Jaskin inked his three-year NHL entry-level contract last Wednesday, after which the Blues immediately assigned the forward to the Peoria Rivermen of the AHL. But apparently the Blues never intended him to play at Peoria.

Jaskin, 20, was the Blues’ second-round pick (41st overall) in 2011. In 51 games this season, Jaskin led Moncton and ranked fifth in the league with 99 points (46 goals, 53 assists). At 6-foot-3 and 205 pounds, he was named the league’s No. 1 star in November and January.
