Barret Jackman wont play tomorrow.
Jackman hasn't recorded a point in nine games, so he is not fantasy relevant.

Jackman will be a decision after tomorrow's skate. #stlblues
The Blues still have not decided whether they will use Jackman tomorrow night against the Wild. Although he does not fill the net, his crease-clearing presence certainly makes a difference in keeping pucks out of the net.

Of being a mentor, Jackman said: "You definitely feel like you're part of their development. You take pride in how well they play and things you could pass along, stuff I learned from Al (MacInnis) and 'Prongs.' I'm grateful to carry on the tradition."
No longer a young-stud defenseman, Jackman will turn to a mentorship role as the longest tenured member of the Blues. Last season the savvy veteran posted 13 assists in 60 games as he battled through injuries. His guidance on the ice will help Carlo Colaiacovo, Kevin Shattenkirk and Alex Pietrangelo but not your fantasy hockey team.
