Not sure about Jackson but Joshua should be the real deal.

1st game of the season, 5 min major + game misconduct penalty, check from behind. <yikes>
Does anyone know was he suspended? Didn't play in the Vees next game.

If he’s even half as good as his father he’ll be a solid nhler

might be legit after all. Will monitor his progress since he's also with the Giants.

8 points in his last 10 games. Maybe that game 1 of the season taught him a lesson; how to not hockey.

I hope this guy becomes a Duck or Devil.

Commits to the Arizona State.

I think he is playing good enough hockey in the BCHL to get drafted
but probably a late rounder.

Have you watched him play?

I haven't but he is listed as a C prospect by Central scouting that and his name might get him drafted no real idea though.

Likes someone said in a different thread about prospects some teams might select to go with guys going to college with later picks as they have more time before they have to commit to them.

Is his skating good?
Eliteprospects lists him at 201lbs which is his dad's size/uncle's size when they played in the NHL, and he's only 17 so figuring another ~5-10lbs over the next few years? Looks like he might be a bit bigger in the end.

 

[Frk It]

4 points (all assists) in 2 games to start the season.

Someone call his parents and show them that picture in the OP. Is he in some sort of Auston Mathews mustache club? What is with these kids? In the old days, Lanny McDonald and Paul MacLean had real mustaches. You could hide a family of raccoons or some golden retriever puppies in those things. That collection of stray hairs under his nose is why Lou Lamoriello had a strict no facial hair policy when his dad and uncle played for the Devils. Maybe that's the point? This is some sort of subtle family push back in case Lamoriello ever looks at drafting Josh? In any event, best of luck to him at AZ St.

If he makes it, let's hope he plays for Canada.

Devils call dibs!
