The Next Ones – Boone Jenner – NHL 2011 Draft Prospect Profile: Jenner-ating Old Time Hockey Flashbacks | The Hockey Writers
"Not often do I find myself at a lost for adjectives when describing a prospect. When tackling the prospect profile of Boone Jenner, I can find no better way to launch into this edition of The Next Ones draft preview series then to simply state I love the way this kid plays the game.
Growing up on a farm in Ontario, Jenner has a work ethic that is second to none in this draft. The physical and skilled centerman almost seems to be from a different hockey era. I can picture this kid going up against a Bobby Clarke type player and not backing down and actually excelling.
This kid is simply a player you would love to go to battle with. Coaches love him. Teammates love him. Fans love him. Opponents hate to play against him.
The major question mark heading into the season was skating, but he has improved that aspect of his game immensely this season. Jenner is one of the safest picks in this year’s draft. He is also able to elevate his game as the stakes get bigger."
