Jakub Jerabek made his debut with the St. Louis Blues on Thursday night, suiting up in place of Vince Dunn against the Calgary Flames. Jerabek arrived in a late trade with the Edmonton Oilers, bringing over additional defensive depth.
How’d he do in his debut? If we’re being honest, not too well.
Jerabek’s line: (-3), 1 shot and 2 penalty minutes in just under eight minutes of playing time.
Now, I’ll be the first to say that plus/minus is a mostly useless stat that’s used far too often to draw important conclusions.
