I have no expectations of Jake and frankly, at his age his and with the role he is given, offensive production is irrelevant. I want him to succeed, and I only question his NHL viability out of genuine concern. I see you use words like Dynamic very loosely by the way, cute. Under no circumstances would ownership or management at any level put the success of Utica above the multimillion dollar operation that is the Vancouver Canucks. Guance is playing in Utica because he is able to play in Utica. If both Guance and Virtanen were able to play in Utica, you can bet Virtanen would be down there. It has absolutely nothing to do with how "Dynamic" he is. Stop kidding yourself and stop fishing for up votes. Guance has gone through the process best suited for long term success. He and even Shink should both have their much deserved roster spot. They earned it, Instead, Jake Virtanen gets to waltz into the lineup because he is "Too good for Jr" Absolute BS. If I was Guance I would punch Jim Benning right between the eyes. This way he would have a legit reason to keep me in Utica.
