Even on a bad team 4 goals has to be seen as a massive disappointment.Has Lambert regressed/stagnated, or is this more of a case of the Moose being bad, and him having ridiculously bad luck (He's shooting at like 3%)?

I still a lot of this is shooting luck. He's not a 3.5% shooter in terms of talent. If he was more into his expected range of shooting % he'd be among the team leaders in goals. Just a weird season. I'm still not sure he's a difference maker, but that's more because the Moose have looked so dysfunctional overall.Even on a bad team 4 goals has to be seen as a massive disappointment.

But the Jets retain quite a bit of depth and variety among F prospects, so I think they'll have at least one or two emerge as good middle-6 F options.
I don't think it's too likely that Rashevsky comes over, but his current D+6 NHLe of 0.486 is the 6th best of any Jet-drafted prospect, behind Scheifele (1.038), Connor (0.891), Ehlers (0.800), Little (0.632) and Morrissey (0.486).I note on eliteprospects that he is not signed for next season in the KHL. Hopefully he’s thinking about coming over here.
I think he does come over, chevy was talking to him this summer and trying to get him over for this year, the past 2 contracts he signed mid season and that has yet to happenI don't think it's too likely that Rashevsky comes over, but his current D+6 NHLe of 0.486 is the 6th best of any Jet-drafted prospect, behind Scheifele (1.038), Connor (0.891), Ehlers (0.800), Little (0.632) and Morrissey (0.486).
So he's scoring at a decent clip in the KHL (4 years in a row, now) and could possibly be a 40 point middle-6 guy in the NHL.
I kind of think he's pissed off at his team as well.I think he does come over, chevy was talking to him this summer and trying to get him over for this year, the past 2 contracts he signed mid season and that has yet to happen

I don't think he is willing to play in the AHL and I don't think he can win a job with the Jets.
Really depends on who they are able to bring back. we've got a number of UFAs that are scheduled to ship off this off-season. I can see Appleton and Iafallo being replaced, and Ehlers will likely not be back either.
There are a few prospects who started the season extremely slowly and stayed that way a long time but are now coming around in a big way. OTTOMH, Wagner, Loponen, Nehring have all suddenly started producing at very high levels. Barlow is not quite in that group but he certainly improved quite a lot after a disappointing start to the season. All in all, Jets prospects pool is looking deep as well as pretty strong.
Well woof. That was a huge swing and a miss for a mid 1st round pick. Lots of quality guys taken after him too. Wyatt Johnston taken 5 spots after him. Yikes.
Lucius has a ton of talent and I think he would have been one of the better players from that draft if he hadn't been hit by all the injuries.Well woof. That was a huge swing and a miss for a mid 1st round pick. Lots of quality guys taken after him too. Wyatt Johnston taken 5 spots after. Yikes.

Luke Green and Johannesson come to mind. Could argue that Heinola got derailed by injury too.Jets have been pretty fortunate in that we've really only had a small handful of prospects that have had their progress significantly hampered by injuries.
I had hoped it was Justin Williams 2.0 and as he matured, he could overcome the injuries and string together some healthy productive seasons. Too bad if this is true. Definitely had the talent to become a useful 2nd line caliber player.Lucius has a ton of talent and I think he would have been one of the better players from that draft if he hadn't been hit by all the injuries.
