Lemieux is expected to compete for a spot on the Jets' fourth line during training camp, Tim Campbell of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
Lemieux isn't totally absent of offensive ability after tallying 41 goals in 57 games for OHL Barrie last season, but bringing energy and agitating the opposition is his calling card, and his likeliest pathway to the NHL. The 19-year-old is expected to battle with Chris Thorburn, Matt Halischuk, and camp tryout Matt Fraser for one of the wing spots on the Jets' fourth line.
