The St. Louis Blues are rife with players that were given lots of praise way too early. Yesterday we gave out the final grade for Jori Lehtera.
Lehtera is known for his disappointment at this stage of the game. He came out with a very strong rookie season, but has gone downhill since then.
Following in his footsteps is Dmitrij Jaskin. Jaskin did not necessarily have much pressure on him at the start, but he received way too much praise.
Then coach, Ken Hitchcock, discussed Jaskin’s talent as some of the most impressive he had seen in a prospect.
