That's fair. I dont like to be too harsh on people right away, but perhaps the fan criticism coupled with Travis Green's coaching actually really helped Jake get to this point. He strikes me as an honest and caring person, and I'm happy he has seemed to thrive from criticism rather than buckle which would really sucked for him, us fans, his teammates etc.
Nothing wrong with you being undecided- I think that's the smart thing for a player like Jake. He still has a long ways to go. What excites me most is his commitment to how he plays without the puck. IMHO if he can keep that up, I see no reason why him and Horvat couldn't have great chemistry together.
