Elias Pettersson Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 16 minutes ago, EddieVedder said: This is a brutal signing for nj. Jack is such a 1 dimensional player. He will put up decent points in regular season but there is no way hes going to lead a team when it matters. Theres a lot of desperation from a lot of the eastern american teams lately to find an american star to build around. Just as they did with McAvoy and jones, theyll overpay out of pure hope and fantasy. It will bite them in the butt. Yes I agree. Jack is tiny. Guys like Crosby, Bure, etc. were small but built like tanks. Hughes will get destroyed in the playoffs. Even Quinn is alot tougher then Jack. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when the games matter, he wont be able to change his game to take the team anywhere. Itll be players like mercer that take nj places. putting up points like gaudreau? idk bout that maybe few years perhaps. still not worth 8. myb 6 atm...

Gaudreau's a good comparison because Hughes plays scared when it matters too. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the us national program. They build one dimensional players. Rarely will you ever find a complete player that can battle and carry a team on their back when it matters come from that program. Jt miller is one i can think of but eve he played in the ohl. Its clear nj paid him 8 mill because they can use the fact that hes American for marketing the team.

Nave Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I think he has a lot of potential, but it's simply too early to be giving him that much money and term. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s Heischer gett8ng. They have 2 cream puffs leading their offence at the most important position. At least we have BO. Not sure why people want to trade him. He isn't a cream puff and can actually win faceoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and no one thinks anyone is going to want to resign here after the last couple seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattJVD Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Holy crap. Jack has a career high of 31 points and 55 total points in 119 games. That's the same points/game as Höglander, without Höglander's high effort fearless play. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was also the 1st going after Erik Johnson after he kneed Palmieri. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's 20 years old and still developing. Put goal scorers on his wings and his production will start to match the amount of chances he creates.

They must believe in him to breakout and produce offensively like crazy for them to be offering 8M over 8 years. If he doesn’t produce the way their management is expecting him to, that contract is going to look real bad. OOF. The deal that management here made with Quinn looking better every day. But hey, at the end of the day, both of the brothers are multi millionaires. They’re pretty much set for the rest of their lives, even if they suck from here on out, still getting paid. Guaranteed money isn’t it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quinn I can see jumping in and swinging. But not Jack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
