Jeff turned out to be an accomplished skater, not the quickest but very mazy with good puck control. Not very big for a "D man" his abilities proved great assets for the team. Unfortunately he missed a chunk of the early season after suffering a broken foot. Much to my disappointment he didn't return, instead signing for Timmendorf in Germany.
