Playing career
Jackman's hometown's Trail Smoke Eaters and the Beaver Valley Nitehawks first played "A" and "B" with his hometown's Trail Smoke Eaters and the Beaver Valley Nitehawks in 1996-97. He won the KIJHL Championship with the Nitehawks, as well as winning the Cyclone Taylor Cup; the British Columbia Junior "B" Championships was his first and only season in the juniors.
He was named the youngest captain in the Western Hockey League the following year and spent four seasons with 796 Penalty-In-Minutes (PIM'S) in 234 regular WHL season games played.
He was drafted in the first round of the 1999 NHL Entry Draft in Boston by the St. Louis Blues after playing junior and major junior hockey for five years; 17th overall in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft.
He finished with a plus 23 rating in the 2002–03 NHL season and was one of the top figures for average ice time per game among NHL rookies. Jackman captured the Calder Memorial Trophy (Rookie of the Year) in 2003, barely beating out Henrik Zetterberg of the Detroit Red Wings and Rick Nash of the Columbus Blue Jackets.
During much of the 2003–04 season, he was sidelined by a recurring shoulder injury and appeared in only 15 games; a disappointing follow-up to his stellar debut year.
Jackman stayed in St. Louis and played for the Missouri River Otters after being locked out in the NHL. He returned to the Blues for the 2005-06 season. Jackman made career records in assists and points in the 2006-07 season. He was a member of the 2007 Canadian IIHF World Championship team, which took gold in a 4–2 victory over Finland in Moscow, Russia.
Jackman was re-signed by the Blues to a three-year deal extension on June 18, 2012.
The Blues told Jackman that his relationship with the club after 16 years would come to an end on June 11, 2015, releasing him to a free agency. Jackman signed with the Nashville Predators on a two-year deal, earning an average of $2 million per season. Jackman was a staple on the blueline from 2005 to 2016, scoring 5 points in 74 games. He appeared in all 14 post-season games before the Predators were eliminated in the Conference Semi-Finals by the San Jose Sharks. Jackman was released on unconditional waivers for the purpose of buying out the remaining year of his deal after only one year in Nashville.
Jackman officially resigned on October 4, 2016, after signing a one-day deal with St. Louis that meant he would leave as a member of the Blues.
