Quick Hits: The Rasmussen’s Rookie Year Edition

He’s put up eight goals and 10 assists in 62 games so far this season. Four of his eight goals have come on the power play. He’s a minus-8 with 29 PIMS.

My expectations weren’t very high for the 19-year-old. I probably expected to see more than 18 points, but he’s on a bad team and he’s a young kid making the jump straight from juniors. That’s not exactly a recipe for success. I guess I’m just glad he got the experience of an NHL season. Next year is when the expectations get higher and I want to see some improvement from the 9th overall pick.
