Observations:

 

February 2013 – More of the same from Yuen who is the leader of a younger Tri-City Americans team this year. Despite a fall in numbers, Yuen remains a solid prospect in the Jets organization. He has 28 points in 55 games. Zenon Herasymiuk

 

April 2012 – Zach Yuen is a dependable, puck moving defenseman that plays a simple style of game. He set a new career high in points with 38 in 66 games. He was also a league best plus-45 for the Tri-City Americans. His set of skills isn’t amazing but he thinks the game well and doesn’t try to do too much. His stats may be a bit inflated playing on a stronger team, but it looks like the Jets might have a steal on their hands. Expect him to spend another year in junior where he will put up good numbers again.

 

Fantasy Outlook: C-

Solid, all around defenseman. Success may not translate perfectly at the next level, but looks good for now.
