This kid should be back in junior, it’ll be a wasted year for him down there but it’s better to work on his offense in junior than flail away with the Flyers playing 8 minutes a night.
I don’t think it would be a wasted year simply because he has never dominated at that level. Many excuses have been due to the fact that he hasn’t dominated basically blaming the team and giving him a free pass. I would like him to show us he is to good for the league.
The other part of that is he could be playing in College with Martone if DB hadn’t rushed to sign him to a contract all so he could be the NHL equivalent of a purse dog. Unfortunately, when DB showed Jett to all his friends he didn’t perform as expected and went back into the purse. Now DB is stuck, if Jett didn’t make the team this year, then it would reflect negatively on DB and if there’s anything we know about this front office is that they are very very image conscious.
It’s kind of crazy that Jett has had 2 separate 10 game tryouts and has yet to come close to playing 10 TOTAL games. Spending more time with the fans watching the games than actually being dressed. It just speaks as to how desperate DB has been for a “win” regarding Jett. A player who they endlessly hyped after his draft and promoting him being the “youngest player in history to make the team”. Unfortunately when he was actually on the ice they couldn’t get him off of it fast enough.
Look for him to go through the same charade next year before finally being able to send him to the AHL.
