What the official site has to say about Jesse...
Born and raised near Nashville, Tennessee where the winters are hot, snow is rare, and the rinks are few and far between, #23 quickly adjusted to Johnstown "Hockeytown!" Winning the organization’s Defensive Player of the Year, Jesse brings a versatile style of play with a mix of finesse and toughness. He can control the power play, 4 PP goals, and he’s definitely not afraid to play it tough having 6 fights last season. His colorful personality and passion for being apart of the community is the reason he was voted 2012-2013 Tomahawks Fan Favorite. The coaches are looking for this 3rd year veteran to bring maturity and leadership both on and off the ice.
