northersabre Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 He hasn't been given much of a chance? Is he on our depth roster? In what order does our depth go? Janik, Jillson..... who is their to step in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PTS Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Jeff is probably 10th on the depth chart. He's incredibly slow and won't fit well with this team. 7. Fitzpatrick 8. Janik 9. Paestch 10. Maybe Jillson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spandrel Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 I would think that the order would be Janik, Paetsch, and then Jillson. Janik and Paetsch both had good +/- and are better skaters than Jillson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janik and Paetsch both had good +/- and are better skaters than Jillson. I was under the impression that skating was one of Jillson's positives. The only problem is his head was never in the game. I don't think you will see Jillson back with the Amerks next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you will see Jillson back with the Amerks next year. The couple of Amerks games I went to this year, Jillson was horrible. He turned the puck over A LOT. I would be very surprised if he got a call before Janik or Paetsch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember when the Sabres acquired Jillson, there were people syaing he had the talent to be a NHL all-star. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having heard all the "good" stuff about him, it is very frustrating to watch him play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be very surprised if he got a call before Janik or Paetsch. Yeah, that was my impression. I went to about 10 games this year, and he was always seemed to be more of a liability on the ice than anything. He always seems decent using his size to grind in the corners, but Paetsch and Janik are much better skaters. I would be surprised to see him up in Buffalo next year, unless there is a need due to injury. Again, these are more based on my observations at the games I've been to, more than stats are scouting reports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
