Fair enough. However, Perfetti would have to sign a contact with a team overseas and play for them instead of the OHL if he doesn't make the NHL. I don't think that has happened for many Canadians. Rossi was in the ZSC Lions system since he was 13.

Unless players have a good chance to make the NHL, there isn't any rush as they have two years. It can often be in the players best interest to wait if they won't make the NHL soon as they can only really negotiate bonuses.

Interesting to hear about the bonuses (like All-Rookie Team), I don't usually see many specifics about those

A positive sign: he's wearing a Jets cap and not one with the Cole Perfetti brand logo. Does he have an app yet?
His dad is working on it, or so I hear.A positive sign: he's wearing a Jets cap and not one with the Cole Perfetti brand logo. Does he have an app yet?

I'd like to see him this coming season.
Put him on the wing and let him get his feet wet.
Less responsibility than center.

Maybe the Jets can declare Perfetti to be an essential worker for them?

Man does he look young , maybe because he is.
Honestly Cole looks 2 or 3 years younger than Lafreniere for sure. It’s one of the reasons I was so high on him. He was totally dominating the OHL while being physically immature still.
I really don't see any reason now that he is really dedicated in the gym and with a skating coach that he can't get his skating and strength to a Lafrenier level.
He is already exceptional down low with the puck on his stick. Just imagine how much better he will look with added strength and being a step and a half quicker.
I actually think Moe and a number of our impact forwards will like him quite a bit due to how good he is on the cycle.
