Dude, Jesse is rapidly approaching reclamation project territory, if he isn't already there. Oilers fans may believe that selling low would be a mistake on Jesse, but I think the bottom has yet to truly fall out on his value. He has had 4.5 seasons in the bigs with two kicks at the can separated by a season in Finland to get his head right. He is big but he doesn't play the body. His best points total was this year because he was on a line with McDavid, and once he got demoted, he was invisible on the ice. He had 4 goals and 6 assists in the last 4 months of the regular season (January-April)
He may flash his potential from time to time, but so does Drouin, consistency is part of being considered a great hockey player, and Jesse doesn't have it. How much longer do you let this experiment continue?
