Let the unrealistic expectations commence! (Also, that is not all. I have things to say about things. And stuff.)
With all of the forward prospects the Blue Jackets have marinating in the AHL and below, it's sometimes hard to decide which has the brightest future. For many of us, the future of BJORKSTRAND (nee, Oliver Bjorkstrand) cannot come quickly enough. After being selected in the 3rd round of 2013 following a solid 30/30 season in Portland, BJORKSTRAND exploded in the following two years in the WHL, to the tune of:
Regular Season
128 games, 113 goals, 114 assists, 227 points
Playoffs
38 games, 29 goals, 29 assists, 58 points
So, yeah, if you're scoring at home, that's a combined two final seasons of junior hockey with 142 goals.
