Popular Post SID.IS.SID.ME.IS.ME Posted July 9, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 9, 2022 (edited) Jack Jensen (camp invite) was a pretty highly regarded high school player a few years back, for Eden Prairie (Minnesota). He took over as their captain and leading scorer, after Casey Mittelstadt left that team for college. Jensen was a Mr. Hockey nominee (award for most outstanding Minnesota high school player). Played for Team USA at the 2017-18 Hlinka (had a quiet tournament which probably didn’t help his draft stock). Was ranked as high as the 90’s at points during his draft eligibility but ultimately went unselected (fell into the 200s and wasn’t expected to be picked). Had been recruited and committed to Minnesota State but never ended up going there. Played USHL during the pandemic, putting up some decent numbers. Went to Arizona State (NCAA) as a 21 year old freshman in 2021-22 (numbers don’t jump of the page, but decent totals last year for a freshman on a team with several upperclassmen and NHL picks, which likely limited his icetime and role). He profiles as a power forward type with soft hands, good skating speed and agility, good size (6’2”, 200+), and a physical game/hitting. The few old scouting reports I could dig up suggested he was viewed a bit of a long term project and, at least as a teenager, had some question marks about his hockey sense/IQ).

It’s actually been seven years since his first appearance at a Canucks development camp (2015). Time really flies. I’d say he’s still open to returning to the organization, but likely only if he was given a real shot at making the NHL roster. He seems done with the AHL (and can’t really blame him), after three productive seasons on the farm, doing everything the team asked of him, and never really getting a sniff at a call-up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish Jasek was coming to training camp this year to fight for a spot, I thought he did all that was asked of him in Utica but you need to be a pro...things aren't handed to young players unless they are drafted highly and there is pressure on the team. We know all to well how that works, see Virtanen and McCann as prime examples. Doesn't Jasek have an out clause and could he not theoretically come to camp and try to win a spot? Usually Euro leagues start earlier than the NHL though I believe so that makes it tough. I was always curious if our new management regime ever reached out to Jasek or even Tryamkin when they first took over from JB. I realize Tryamkin no longer is property of the Canucks this summer and he could sign anywhere if he wanted to come back. Liked what I saw from Tryamkin and now he has matured with age and we have some russians on the team to make him and his wife feel comfortable if they were to consider coming back, mute point now though it seems 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually Euro leagues start earlier than the NHL though I believe so that makes it tough. He’s in a transfer agreement league so the out clause is basically built in. If he signs an NHL deal, it overrides and replaces his Liiga contract. But there’s also a set signing window, written into the transfer agreement, and that deadline (June 15) passed last month. For that reason, he can’t be signed by the Canucks for this coming season and he won’t be at camp competing for a spot. The earliest we likely see him is 2023-24. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gear went on to say they didn’t draft Silovs until round six and that Ian Clarke was so mad he wouldn’t speak until Silovs was chosen. Sure sounds like Silovs is a Clarke pick and a very good one. Made him sound like a child kinda LOL but he sniper a beauty with Silovs so gotta love Clarky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R3aL Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 Kinda shame Kirill won’t be at camp. it’s easy to think his numbers could have been higher if not playing behind 20/21 year old Dmen. And also first season in North America. his skating, size, passing all there. very curious to follow this 7th rounders development path. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could have easily taken him in the 4th and it would have been a good pick though. I doubt Keppen or Focht wouldn’t have been available in the 5th and early 6th either. Glad they didn’t wait until one of their other two 6th round picks and took him with the first pick. Would have sucked to miss out on him because they wanted to gamble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m hoping they’ll announce something soon, like in previous years, and open up some viewings for the public, either just with free attendance each day for anyone who wants to go, or maybe do an online signup for free tickets (to limit the numbers) allowing fans to attend, maybe on the later days, when they’ll be having scrimmages. Hopefully they’ll do a live stream of the scrimmages as well, but I’m not holding my breath. More likely they’ll just post some highlights through their social media team. Pre-pandemic, they usually opened these summer development camps up, at least partially, to the public. They also would sometimes be really late announcing any of this, and it seemed like some years the full details (for public attendance) weren’t even confirmed and released until after the camp was already underway.
