Lukáš Jašek (born 28 August 1997) is a professional ice hockey forward from the Czech Republic, currently signed with Ilves competing in the Liiga.
Playing career
Jašek began his professional career in the Czech Extraliga (ELH) playing for HC Oceláři Třinec during the 2014–15 Czech Extraliga season. He was selected 174th overall by the Vancouver Canucks in the 2015 NHL Entry Draft.
On 20 April 2018, Jašek agreed to a three-year entry-level contract with Vancouver and was subsequently assigned to their AHL team, the Utica Comets, for the remainder of the 2017–18 campaign.
Due to delays in the 2020–21 North American season, on 24 August 2020, he was loaned back to HC Oceláři Třinec.
As a restricted free agent who had not yet played in the NHL, Jašek departed from the Canucks organization and inked a one-year deal with Finnish Liiga side Lahti Pelicans on 12 June 2021.
