I don’t expect the McClennon addition to the Young Stars roster to actually materialize into an ELC.

Likely just here to fill a spot on the roster.

Interesting move given that he is under contract with the Chicago Wolves, which is an independent team. If the Jets wanted to get McClennon, how would they even go about it? Trade with the Wolves? Or does a NHL deal with the Jets override the existing AHL one with the Wolves?

Thanks for keeping track of him. You never know - he could become a better player and come back.
 
Can confirm now that Wagner had 0:00 TOI today. Up to 2GP with no ice time. Wasn't sent down for yesterday's U20 game either.

I absolutely admire Chad Lucias' positional Game. Keep your eyes peeled on #51. To the average fan it might seem unremarkable, but to an astute Winnipeg observer (such as my pretentious beer leaguer self) that shift from 2:07:36-2:09:00 is something to admire hockey IQ wise. And again at 2:22:10. Then again at 2:28:05 on the late terrible shift change by Lambert (47). PENTICTON YOUNG STARS | Winnipeg Jets vs. Vancouver Canucks.

Not only does Lucius seem to be everywhere all at once while on Defence, but he has a real knack for being at the right places at the right times on Offence. It reminds me of Lowry.

I used to jokingly hate guys on my team that just happened to be at the right place at the right time, but now i realize its a real talent/skill..

The Jets could use a guy like that on the 3rd or 4th line, even the Pk.

I agree that Lucius has a good understanding of positioning and timing. He still needs to learn how to make plays against faster and more skilled defenders. He also looks like he needs to improve his quickness and/or stamina to play C at the next levels.

He’s missed a lot of time for games and conditioning to injuries for a few years now. I hope he can gain more strength and have a full healthy year with the Moose. His World Juniors and that stint with Portland before his injury were a thing of wonder. Damn shame his season ended so early.

Agree. I think he'll need time in the AHL while he builds his quickness, stamina and strength and get up to speed with his hands / timing.

You can see that he's making advanced decisions, but his execution is a bit off as he tries to make plays against bigger and more skilled opponents.
