2019-20 Player Review: Boone Jenner needs a new role

Time has no meaning in 2020, but nonetheless it doesn’t feel like that long ago that Boone Jenner broke out as a rookie in 2013-14, scoring 16 goals, earning his way into a top six role, and then adding another three goals in the postseason. Two years later, he scored 30 goals in an otherwise disappointing season for the team, cementing his status as a top six power winger.

Over the last two seasons, due to an injury to Brandon Dubinsky and ineffective play from Alexander Wennberg, Jenner was moved to center.
