Prospect Info: Jets Prospects

Colby Barlow is having himself quite the opening playoff game. 3 goals and an assist so far after two periods.
Scored the opening goal and the second goal on tip-ins, second one was right after he laid a huge hit behind the net. His third ended up being the game winner, one-timer from his office on the faceoff dot on the PP.

Highlights of the game here:


Barlow finished his regular season OHL career with 148 goals scored, good for 30th all time. Tied with Patrick O'Sullivan, 1 behind Jason Robertson, and 5 back of Bryan Little.
 
Look forward to Yager's production completely drying up next season on the sh1tty moose setup.

(seriously though, I am excited about him)

Heisinger needs to do a much better job bringing in some solid AHL vets to support the prospects. Being thrown to the wolves in a losing environment can’t be great for their development.

You want guys who can play effectively, insulate them and show them the ropes of the day to day in professional hockey.

Failure to do so is doing your prospects a grave disservice.

Yeah no idea what happened at the Moose level thisbyear, but no one emjoys the grind of playing hockey the same way when you are a horrible team
 
Down the drain for Lucius ….. with the rest of the bath water.

Why did the Toronto- torian through $220 down the out house pooper..
He had previously dropped a Lonnie down the hole and he wanted to make it worth his while getting dirty!

No use wasting good $ after Bad $ on Lucius …..

Our 1 st ever Bust of a 1 st round pick since we returned = not 1 NHL game played.

I would say KVes was our first bust but I am splitting hairs I guess. We tried him for 53 games in 21-22 and he had 6 points and that was it for him. I consider him a bust but it depends on the criteria I guess.
 
Honestly I would say after Laine we have only had one hit out of the 1st round which is Perfetti. Nobody else has yielded much “yet”.
I know it might create a fire-storm, but I think Heinola has been disappointing, all things considered. The caveat is that most players drafted around his spot (#20) or later have been disappointing.

Lucius was promising, but injuries have perhaps cratered his career.

I don't mind the rest of the picks, yet (Perfetti, McGroarty, Lambert, Barlow). Barlow might be the most iffy based on his regular season, but he's off to a strong playoff start. Maybe just needed a jolt of motivation in his 4th full junior season.

Good point, most players drafted in the bottom third of round one don't turn into much.

Still have some faint hope he can claw out a bottom pairing puck moving and second pp unit role but I have a hard time seeing that here with Stanley probably locked into that bottom pairing LD spot for the foreseeable future.

Far too soon to say for guys like Lambert and Co.
