I don't think him ending up as a 3C would get a coach canned. Think it'd just be a reflection of his capability against top-tier talent. It's his most likely projection, and if Lambert takes the next step forward that we're anticipating, Brad will be the one to get that 2C slot.
@@Tlilancalqui Faceoffs have a relatively low correlation with offensive success in the NHL, and +/- is an outdated, context-less stat. Yager has outshone Lambert in pre-season to a degree, but Brad already has an entire season's worth of high-level, pro-calibre success with the Moose. Neither is ready for the 2C role, and I'm going to trust the elite skating and offensive ability that Lambert has shown at previous levels as an indicator for what his potential ceiling is. Yager is a great prospect in his own right, but does not have the same tools that Brad has. It's entirely possible Yager one day becomes the 2C, but based on his current junior trajectory, I don't see that as the likely outcome.
I'd argue it would be very fun to play in the AHL. Rutger will be lucky if he becomes a full time NHL player. Jumping from college to the NHL is extremely difficult.
McGroarty thought he could force his way onto an NHL roster. He is not NHL ready. Reality is hitting him hard now after thinking he could bypass the AHL. Maybe Winnipeg fans can greet him when Scanton comes to play the Moose. 😅
The 13:35 mark features discussion of a claim by Harrison Lee that the NHL‘s preseason should be shortened. Such preseason this time around will have lasted 15 days. This Friday Eastern Daylight Time NBA preseason play will start, with such play to end when the last of those games that began on the third Friday of October EDT have wrapped up, with the fifth and final game the Raptors are scheduled to play in preseason to take place early on the evening EDT of the final day of preseason play at Barclays Center against the local Nets.
Bro did absolutely 0 research on how well Rutger was doing in the preseason. Top 10 in the preseason for xGF. His defensive metrics have actually been really good too. The only reason he would have been going to the A to start the year is because of the flexibility of being waiver exempt. Thats the only speculation there's been with the coaches remarks for other players , not McGroarty. It's also been understood that if he were to start the year in the AHL, it would be very short lived and that he would be joining the team in a month or two and never looking back. Jets fan(s) can't accept the fact he just didn't want to play in Winnipeg and that's why he wanted out. It was never about guaranteed NHL playing time. There's no source anywhere thay confirms that. Just Winnipeg copium because they still can't wrap their head around people not wanting to play for them. Oh, and I really like Yager - but how many preseason games did he play in? What were his underlying numbers looking like? Hmmmm.
As a penguins fan, he made a wrong decision, so far. Jets are #1 and penguins are 2nd last in eastern conference with very to little hope for success this year.
@@LockedOnJetsNHL he made the team it looks like. Meanwhile we send Chib and Lambert down. Maybe he was right after all and prooved he made the right decision to leave the Jets? I’m not sure. Just seems like we haven’t moved the needle in any direction. Salo making the team is nice.
@@LockedOnJetsNHL that is disappointing 🙁 I’d love to see a video w your thoughts on the kids being sent down meanwhile Rutgers probably feeling justified he left us making the pens
Mcgroaty has the 8th highest xGF for all players in the entire pre-season. Kid’s going to be fine whether he makes the roster or not
@@JimdalfTheOrange Top 6 in the AHL form sure
Will Yager be a top 6 guy? Don't know, but I'll bet he spends 15 years with the organization.
Even if he tops out as a great 3C, he'll still be a quality impact player. Kid just seems to have the smarts and work ethic for a long career.

Yeah, potential 2nd line winger? or 3C? hard to say!
@@Tlilancalqui I think it depends on the roster because every team wants a deep top 9!

This is how you know Jets fans know very little about hockey. College is more competitive and an easier jump than from Jr to the NHL.
@@brandonrickner1321 lay off the crack, bruh....
Any hockey player that thinks he’s too good to play in a certain team doesn’t deserve to play in the NHL 😢that one’s for you rutgersour

I checked wbs doesn't play the moose this year.
@@wbj2000 post didn’t age well
McGro made Pens…Lambert did not make Jets despite being one of the best players in TC. Maybe McGro was right
Well guess he was right 😂
Love how wrong you are Rutger Mcgroaty made the Penguins NHL did Yager make the Jets?
He just earned a spot on the opening night roster lmaoo. Not NHL ready, my ass
It’s time to stop piling on this guy, Yags is here, LFG!

McGroarty is a solid player but Jets fans are behaving as if they lost the next Bedard when they got similar value in return.
He has an apple last night. Maybe it will buy him more time :)

Where is rutger! Where is rutger!
That knee bent way too far in the wrong direction. His season is a write-off.
Hoping the rehab isn't the whole season. So unfortunate and a completely needless hit.
Is it confirmed Rutger got sent down to the AHL?
Yes, his defence is pretty bad and skating is slow.
Not yet officially, but there's a lot of speculation (plus some of Pittsburgh's own coaching staff's remarks) that he'll start in the A this year.

Winnipeg jets don’t want cry babies in their organization 😂
The sound is bad sounds like you are in a barrel
If the jets stop drafting arrogant arrogant American college kids, they shouldn't have to go through this again.
You armchair critics don't have a clue what Rutger McGroarty is all about. Keep spewing your rumors. LMFAO
when he dumped his high school sweetheart for a Cali girl the first semester of college he switched up tbh
