Re: 2019-20 Michigan Tech Season Thread. Broetzman has us off to a Bliss-ful start!
not really surprised. I would have figured one way or another (even coming in as a walk on) he would end up at Tech. I know he was getting scouted by Joe right after his Senior year when he played in the CCM HS Tourney in Minn. At that time Joe had not yet been named HC. Jed also played on that Copper Country Midget National Championship team that year.
At that time (high school season), if he hadn't broken his jaw playing pick-up, I thought he might have given Crespi a challenge for Michigan Mr. Hockey. I always felt Jed was the better all around skater. I think the shift to D kinda proved that. As well as a better all around game. Crespi was always more of a straight line speed, big time shot guy. I thought Jed brought a little more versatility to his game. I guess now we'll get to see if that assessment was accurate or not.
He may well be just a depth guy as SG suggests, but I won't be surprised at all to see him skate his way into the lineup.
