hateleafs Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 last preseason Jensen deserved to be on the canucks I thought he played very good he played in 3 or 4 games I believe he scored vs the sharks and flames he set up the winning goal against the oilers I want him to be a canuck but if he keeps getting{ sven baertchi from the flames} type treatment you don't think he'll want outa here as well? and I hope he ain't getting tradet either. anyone else would be hurt and angry if he'd get tradet?

thejazz97 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Jensen's decent, but we don't need decent right now; we need good. Great would be nice, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totes McGoats Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Jensen played fine. Takes a lot to make the NHL though. You have to bring a complete game. Jensen has been scratched by Utica in the playoffs. He obviously took a step back this year. Hopefully he takes one foreward next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeanBeef Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Didnt he get hurt off a Nurse hit last preseason? Or was that the before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwags Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I think next year is his last chance. If he doesn't improve, Benning could trade him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdgarM Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 If he played like Kenins or Horvat then he would not be getting benched in the minors. Pretty simple you have to EARN your way up the ladder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovesLikeDatsyuk Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Horvat had 0 points in 5 games in utica But he was a 2way forward with great faceoff skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mathew Barzal Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 He's on a short leash next year that's for sure. I'm pulling for the kids but it does not look good at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldnews Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 patience. the roster was too deep for him to earn a spot last year. maybe this year. he's still young regardless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbone909 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I'll be surprised if he is not trade bait this off season. Might just be another Gillis bust like Jordan Schroeder in 2009.Could be a career AHler unless he goes to Europe if he can't catch on with another NHL if things don't work out in Van. Hey as another poster said some guys just don't have the drive to make it to the show. Jensen may be one of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he was called up, many knowledgeable Comets fans agreed that was the last time they'd see Horvat in a Utica jersey. If only the same could be said for Jensen (and I'm a big fan of his and want nothing more than to see him succeed). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesB Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Jensen played fine. Takes a lot to make the NHL though. You have to bring a complete game. Jensen has been scratched by Utica in the playoffs. He obviously took a step back this year. Hopefully he takes one foreward next. Jensen has had short periods when he played well, including one stretch with the Canucks. But he is not consistent and makes too many defensive mistakes. (There is a reason he had by far the worst plus/minus on Utica this year -- and that is despite relatively favorable match-ups.) I think next year is his last chance. If he doesn't improve, Benning could trade him. Agreed that next year is his last shot. Not sure he gets traded. He might not even get re-signed next year. If he played like Kenins or Horvat then he would not be getting benched in the minors. Pretty simple you have to EARN your way up the ladder. Right. Kids only 22 and still trying to figure out what kind of player he is. I still have hope. A 19-year-old like Bo was this year will normally improve a lot over the following few years. Improvement is fast between 18 and about 21 or 22. After that some improvement is still likely and some guys are late bloomers, but right now Jensen's trajectory looks more likely to take him back to Europe than to the NHL. I agree he has one more chance. He needs to work hard on his defensive game and show that he has a chance to be a useful bottom 6 player at the NHL level.

desiboynux4lifee******* Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 you could of put this in the Jensen Thread. Also I have gone tired of reading Jensen's production. At the moment he is having a decent playoffs and contributing. I highly doubt he will ever be a 2nd line guy in the NHL, but maybe a 3rd line big body guy with nice hands won't be bad.
