Jackson has played less than 70 professional games. I don’t understand why our fan base screams be patient with Mudryk but Jackson has to be replaced in January and he’s not our level. Double standards are crazy. We should be more patient with both.

    Agreed, I don’t get it either. Both players coming into the league new but one is held to some ridiculous standard of “strikers gotta score goals” when we haven’t had the kind of productivity/chances created in years. I think he comes good, he is in the right spots a good percentage of the time, just unlucky. He’s young damnit, playing for a large club in a different country
