Jason Clark 2010-11 SEASON REVIEW:



Jason Clark 
Date of birth: February 27, 1992 (2010-11 Season Age: 18/19)
Place of birth: Eden Prairie, MN, USA
Height: 6'2
Weight: 180
Shooting Hand: Left
NCAA Season: 1st NCAA Season (Freshman Year)
Drafted: New York Islanders in the 3rd round (82nd overall) of the 2010 Draft
Acquired: Originally Drafted By The Isles


2010-11 Season Stats:

University Of Wisconsin        WCHA:  GP: 14 G: 0 A: 1 P: 1  PIM: 6


Short-Term Status:
Hopefully he gets some more games under his belt next season and if he does, he will  be given bottom-six duties and will have limited ice-time

Long-Term Status:
At best, he will be a 3rd line center who is not afraid to drop the gloves and get in the face of opponents. The most likely path his career takes is he will be a fringe NHL'er who splits time between the NHL and AHL 

Contract Status
:
NO NHL CONTRACT AS OF JUNE 6th 2011

Review:
He had a very rough season and was definitely a bit of a disappointment. Now, I know he wasn't expected to be the biggest point producer, but having only one point in 14 games will not cut it. He did at times throw his body around effectively in the offensive zone on the forecheck, but sometimes he ended up out of position trying to make the big hit at the wrong times. He ended up being scratched almost as much as he played. Despite being a freshman, its still not a positive thing that he was scratched for almost all of the 2nd half of the season. As of right now, his future is hazy and it may be smart of him to look into leaving Wisconsin. The Portland Winterhawks hold his CHL rights, so there is a possibility that he could leave and join them in the WHL. I think his physical style of play would really get nurtured in a league known for its hard nosed style of play. Hopefully he looks into the switch because thus far it has not worked out in the NCAA. 

Season Grade (A+ to F-)
: D-

Rough season and there was very little positive to take out of this year for him. He must find a way to improve his play in all three zones as well as his physical play. He played the body well but sometimes over did it. He must pick his spots more and use what talent he has
