Note: Reports prior to Sept 2023 were originally graded out of ten, and also included additional categories that have been merged into the current categories.
This likely results in the overall ratings prior to 2023 being decreased in comparison to reports since Sept 2023.For an `Apples to Apples` comparison between players, we recommend only comparing reports before, or after, Sept 2023.
Results will average out accordingly as more data is accumulated.

Recently signed by the Bruins to his entry-level contract.
7th round pick in 2022 (200th overall)
His added more strength to his frame. Projects as a '2-way D' / ES / PK as a pro.
Solid skater. Better than average puck skill. Provides second layer of scoring at the OHL level with the London Knights. Majority of his TOI comes at ES and PK. Some PP.
Competes and pushes back physically. Opponents need to be aware of Jackson closing the gap in the neutral or finishing his checks down low in his zone. Understated edge to his game.

Showed pretty well at the Prospects Challenge in Buffalo
Made more plays with the puck in the offensive zone. Tried to be more creative.
Jackson battles but he is desperate for more strength (especially leg and core)
He's a solid skater. Agile. But very lean looking.
Projects to be a 2-way / Low risk 'D'. Needs time. IQ is reliable. No flash to his game.

His stats line doesn't tell the entire story this season.
A good size prospect who moves well. He has the look of a potential 2-way 'D' as he matures. He's capable with the puck. His skating allows him to get places ahead of opponents. He occasionally joins the rush as an extra layer. His D-zone awareness is responsible. There is more to his game on the horizon.
