Best thing for him and his development. Looking foward to seeing improvements in his game over the next few weeks. Knows DeLeo's game, hope the line up together.
Recalled/Assigned: Nic Petan assigned to the Moose (AHL)

Good God. Petan was sent down because he was doing jack **** not because of his linemates. Come on now.
Happy that Nic will get serious minutes and a chance to get his mojo back. He is a top 6 forward not a bottom 6 forward. There is no room for him this year in that role. It's not his linemates it's his damned usage.

Petan was sent down because he is just not good enough to be on this team right now.We are in need of some skilled players with some veteran skill right now.He will get a lot more playing time down there.Thats done and over with let's talk about who we could get to help us get into the playoffs.

Draisatl saw the NHL, was too raw, was sent to the AHL (or junior? can't remember), came back and is now dominating.
Sometimes seeing where the bar is gives you inspiration to get up to it.

I have been a big proponent of Petan being used in a skilled role on PP and supporting scoring player from... lets say the 3rd line up on the Jets.
Burying him on the 4th line with 7 minutes of ice time a game wasn't what I had in mind for him. He is better off developing his game in the AHL getting big minutes in all situations. He does need more physical maturity as well - time will help.
My season tickets with the Moose just got more interesting.
Looking forward to seeing Petan, Armia and Raffl light it up on the PP.
Yah baby !!! Yah !!!!

Fine with this, not fine with Peluso and Thor as full time Jets. Mis-judging the readiness of youth was the clear error of the off-season.
2 out of 3 aint bad. Seems to me they only misjudged on Petan. I still have questions if that would have been the case if he was given a better opportunity for success.

Petan, Armia, Lemieux, Lipon. Any and all.
I am sure the expectation was that somebody would fill these spots and create a roster that didn't require 3rd line Thor AND Peluso. If not, well... that's a mistake too.

He's doing his head shot for the AHL. You'll notice that most of them don't look amused.

This is better for Nic all around. This will benefit the Jets in the medium and long term too. They will get a more ready fwd next time around.

He was sent back to junior last year and began the year with bakersfield. He wasn't exactly tearing up the AHL. 6GP 1G 1A 2PTS. Then 14 pts in 9 NHL games since the recall.
I think by the end of the season we will see the rooks starting to play more prominent roles. We all knew this would be the case this season. IIRC you were very high on Petan in Preseason even having him ahead of Ehlers as I recall. I share that view of his potential. 20-40 games in the A, and we might see that potential on his return back.
Armia, Lipon and Lemieux all went either to the A or back to junior. Wasn't that where you expected them to play? Now that it looks like Lipon and Armia are finding their game we might see them at some point.
BTW Peluso is 3rd 5-5 points/60 at 2.07 and Thorburn is 10th at 1.21
Funny how playing with other really good players improves a player's productivity at any level.

If he can maintain his 31% shooting percentage, I think he'll do alright
31% of pucks that get shot at his skate will go in.
