Plate 386 Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 Joel Jakobs has been tearing it up in the VHLM so far. As a rookie, in 50 games Jakobs has put up 24 goals and 43 assists. For a player that is not known for his shot, he's both complimenting his high shooting wingers and taking the shots that open up for him when defensemen leave coverage to protect the lanes. For a lot of top scorers that struggle with preserving their +/-, Jakobs hasn't fallen into that struggle either. Maybe even more impressive is his physicality. Laying out the body nearly twice a game and staying out of the box while doing so. We'll see if he can keep the production going into the playoffs. My guess is not, since most players are a lot better the deeper you get and simulations become less predictable. We'll see how Jakobs can adjust. His team, the Reapers, are battling for 1st in the Eastern Conference against Mississauga. They currently sit at 2nd place.
