Fantasy Summary

Vukojevic could be a bit of a force if everything develops right — the ability to shoot and hit the puck is high.


Observations

July 2024 – Vukojevic was not tendered a qualifying offer by the New Jersey Devils and is now an unrestricted free agent. Austin Kelly

March 2022 – Vukojevic has been relegated to the ECHL after an underwhelming season to date with the Comets (12 points in 40 games), and has been kept off the scoresheet in four matches so far. The outlook seems bleak in his case, as his style of play doesn’t seem to gel well with the North American pro game. Hadi Kalakeche

March 2020 – Vukojevic showed a slight improvement in his skating but will need to do more so in the offseason. His offensive production ticked up slightly from last year as well. He is about a point every other game type of player in the OHL. Discipline is still a bit of an issue also.  Chris Wassel 

June 2019 — Michael Vukojevic hits whatever he wants and seems to destroy it. His physical tendencies should work themselves out eventually. The question is will Vukojevic develop that ability to skate along with defending at the next levels.  Chris Wassel
