I don't think Jacques was from Jacksonville. I'm not sure if that's a plus or a minus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if he was playing injured to start the season then. I like it, could have some untapped upside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking about the 155 games and 62 total points he gave us. A 52 goals playing with the Stastnys isn’t really relevant to Jacques time in Buffalo.

PerreaultForever Posted July 8, 2022 Report Share Posted July 8, 2022 I like this one. Big upside potential. With his age and frame he can still grow into being bigger and stronger. Good pick for the 6th round. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just could not control himself and stay straight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashsabre Posted July 9, 2022 Report Share Posted July 9, 2022 Forton said he played midget hockey and then jumped to the USHL and just took off the 2nd half of the year. Forton has a lot of connections at UCONN. Said he will go back to USHL next year but UCONN was considering bringing him in for this upcoming season so they will have to talk about it. Seems like a player that might take off offensively. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
