John Quenneville no longer has the benefit of the doubt. The New Jersey Devils first-round pick in 2014 has now been called up five different times from the minors, yet hasn’t done nearly enough to make anything stick.
His latest chance was his best chance, and for lack of a better term he blew it. He was given six games to show that he finally showed he had a finishing ability. In those six games, he took five shots. I won’t even harp on the fact that he hasn’t scored a goal so far this season, because a lot of that has to do with luck, but the fact that he didn’t get a shot shows a couple really bad things.
