Thanks. Must have caught me on a good edit.
And yes folks, Virtanen is still a prospect. Maybe even a project.
Seems like a bust to me. Shots fired.
Continue.
The 2017/2018 season will be a make or break year for him IMO.
Hoping for a production trajectory like Radek Faksa this year. Go from mediocre CHL production and 0.3 PPG AHL production to nearly a PPG in the AHL and an NHL callup.
Based on what I saw of him last season, he still needs time. His ability to generate offense on his own is still rather limited. He needs to spend the full year scoring points at the AHL level and developing his offensive game.
There is no need to rush him. Jake is still 20 years old until August 17. He is less than two months older than Adam Gaudette and lost a year of development in 2015-16.
I don't think we should be seeing him in the NHL until after his 22nd birthday. Last year was unsuccessful points-wise for him; he needs a successful AHL season under his belt before the Canucks offer him a chance to play in the NHL.

No offseason stories of Jake to follow this year?
No public trips to Disneyland with sexy actresses?
