Jer Lefebvre Prospect Report

[Jer_Lefebvre 61]

Jer Lefebvre 

   Jer Lefebvre was born and raised a good old Canadian boy. Drafted 23rd Overall in the S72 VHL draft the 6 foot 3, 205lbs center was a surprise jump in the draft. Ranked to be taken around the 32nd spot in the draft the HC Davos Dynamo must have been impressed by the young forwards up and coming talent. He was signed by the Houston Bulls late into S71, the Bulls has not had a good year up to that point, but it all turned around In the end as they nearly made a push for the playoffs.

 

    Only playing 38 games this past season things started out slow for Lefebvre however and the games went on he got better and better. He showed immense amounts of development throughout his first year in the league and opened the eyes of some teams. 
 

Strengths 

Scoring -Rating of 70

Even though his stats may not portray it from his first short season this kid can score goals. In prior seasons before coming to the the VHLM he was a minimum 40 goal scorer every single year. His shot is comparable to that of Ovechkin 9 times out of 10 the puck is in the back of the net before the goalie even knows what happend of all his strengths his shot and scoring ability is no question at the top.

Skating-Rating of 70

Another Major strength of Lefebvre’s game is his skating ability, his first three steps are second to none, he leaves defencmen in his dust many times throughout games. Coming into his first season in the VHLM he was a good skater but not seen as a top one, however he worked and worked throughout the season and has now found himself as one of the best skaters around.

 

Weaknesses

Faceoffs- Rating of 45

As a center faceoffs are very important, this is one area of his game that Lefebvre really needs to work on, his offence and skating has come a very long way but now there is a need for him to work on winning draws. This is a very important aspect not only in the defensive zone, but for a player with Lefebvre’s scoring ability it is also important to gain possession in the offensive zone. After being taken by the Dynamos the first things he mentioned was his goal over the offseason to become a better face off man and I’m sure he will get there.
 

Passing-Rating of 50

With Jer being the goal scorer he is his passing game is lacking. Sometimes he tries to make the extra move when it would be a lot easier to move the puck to a teammate. Though he means well and is a great teammate, sometimes the blinders get up in game. Lefebvre more than makes up for this weakness with his scoring ability however, so not to many coaches or players seem to be complaining.

 

Jer Lefebvre is very young in his VHL career he holds a great amount of potential to develop into a star, now signed by the Dynamos, and playing the upcoming season with the Reapers he will be given every opportunity to advance his game to a star studded level. It will be very exciting to see how far it can go.
