Prospect Info: Jets Prospects

[RustyCat]

Also read somewhere that he is second in the league at FO%. Lots to like here.

The Jets may have a couple real winners coming up the pipeline in their prospects, with Lucius getting a hatrick for team USA, and McGroarty having a great tournament with multiple assists. Jets scouting staff have always been sharp.

Yeah you hear some people talking about our window closing. I think we'll be just fine.

This is the right decision. He's not a driver in the AHL, and he needs more puck touches. Get him to where he can assert his skill and speed more.

It's the best decision for his development at this point in time.

Good call from those that called this months ago.

Edit: I do wish more junior players got some time in the pro leagues. I think it would help with all players developments. Even one game or two.

Saw someone say there's a pretty good chance Lucius ends up in Portland as well, would make for some fun WHL watching.

I hope Lucius can stay healthy.

He will be welcomed here with open arms. Trying to figure out how the lines will work!

I saw that as well, it’s someone that covers the Giants.

He needs to put up some points and get the offensive confidence back. I am hoping for ~1.3-1.5 PPG in the WHL against his peer group.

1.3 would be great, not expecting 1.5. Savoie is currently coming in just below 1.3 ppg and he was drafted much higher then Lambert and plays on an equally deep team.

How is Lambert with the PP? The Birds are one of the worst teams in the WHL in power play goals

Hes very good at gaining the zone with control with his skating. He also looked good on the right HB in preseason, rookie camp and at times for the Moose. Other than that I don't really have much to add. I think if he gains some confidence and gets into an offensive groove he can be a plus pp player.

That is our teams one sore point, so if he can shore that up

Chibrikov follows up his 4 point game with a 5 point game in the MHL, 3G2A. Up to 13 points in 5 games.

Hope he comes over after this year. MHL to VHL to KHL to VHL to MHL to VHL so on and so forth.

1.3 would be great, not expecting 1.5. Savoie is currently coming in just below 1.3 ppg and he was drafted much higher then Lambert and plays on an equally deep team.

1.4-1.5 range is the watermark for me in the D+1 season where if a player hits that then that is very encouraging for their chances as a top-6 player. 1.2-1.3 is decent. PPG or less then you start adjusting the ceiliing of a player downwards. Savoie's season is kinda disappointing to be honest, 1.3 ppg in d+1 for a player of his size would not leave me encouraged if I were a Sabres fan.

I was beginning to wonder if he was a bust. Good to see some points, too bad be couldn’t have made it here for junior.

He is a zone entry beast but that is all he brings at higher levels.

1.3 would be great, not expecting 1.5. Savoie is currently coming in just below 1.3 ppg and he was drafted much higher then Lambert and plays on an equally deep team.

I am thrilled he is going to the CHL but I have low expectations for his actual raw point production.

He seems to have found his level. It is somewhere above the MHL.

Thanks guys!

He's all speed no brain. Help with zone entries but doesn't do much in the zone...against pros anyway. Would hope he shows a lot better with juniors or we've likely wasted a pick.

I think Savoie and Lambert were both drafted a little high based on how they were viewed as 15 and 16 year olds. Their play since then hasn't really supported that hype. Savoie's ceiling to me is Bryan Little. Reliable centre who can play in all situations, probably 50-60 point max depending on where he fits on PP.

2G1A today for Vesalainen in a 5-4 win.

Good move imo. Hope it works for both of them.
