Jake is one of the most complete two-way centers I've evaluated in this class. His ability to read the play and make the right decision under pressure is well beyond his years. Any program would be fortunate to have him in the locker room.

Tracked Jake throughout the full USHL season. Consistent, coachable, and brings real energy every shift. His defensive zone numbers are elite for his draft year. One of the top prospects I've seen this cycle.
