| What GRC says: Fall 2012: Jurco has sick talent as evidenced by the highlight reel youtube videos. He also has the size, strength and determination to to surprise you by going to the net and taking the puck home. After his adjustment period, he should put up some big numbers, and become a fan favorite with his feats of skill and scoring prowess.
