With training camp just around the corner, the Jets signed defenceman Zach Bogosian to a two-year deal for $5 million, according to capgeek.com.

Bogosian will look to improve on his worst professional season where he scored 5 goals and 17 points in 71 games. While the former third overall pick displayed mounds of talent in Juniors, his production has been sporadic over his three NHL seasons. A change of scenery, system and coach could help him improve this season but be cautious before paying for his potential.

“A lot of times I was going against the other team’s top lines. It’s good to get experience like that. I know I’m not going to blow anyone out of the water every year. But you just take it in stride and try to move forward. You can’t dwell on it.”

Not exactly words you want to hear from a budding defensive star. Sounds like Bogosian lost a bit of confidence over his first three seasons and could be hurt even further by moving to a hockey market with actual pressure. Monitor this situation closely as Bogosian has high-end potential which could be filled in the right situation.
