Jack Billings

 
Team: Chicago Fury Bantam Major AAA

Position: Forward

Birthdate: 1995

Overall Player Rating: B+

Skating ability: Above average

Shooting ability: Above average

Passing ability: Average

Weakness: Needs to use offensive skills more prominently

Intangibles: Talented forward with god given talent.

Stats: In 31 games, Billings had 11 goals (two on the power play), eight assists and six penalty minutes for the Fury last season.

Career potential: Billings showed flashes of being the best player on the ice last season. He is an above average skater and has a wicked shot. His passing ability leaves a bit to be desired but he does show signs that he can be a complete passer. The Oak Lawn, IL native plays smart hockey and keeps his nose out of trouble off the ice as well. A few seasons at the Midget level should allow Billings to be a contributing Junior level player in years to come.
