Unlike last season when he opted to go back overseas and play the rest of the season with Jokerit of the KHL after…
Read More →Kristian Vesalainen claimed the number one spot in our 2019 Jets Top Prospect rankings and you’d maybe expect that from a kid who was taken in the first round of the NHL draft. Sami Niku is second on the list which is remarkable when you consider he was taken in the seventh round of the…
Read More →Of all the players we have in our top ten list, Mason Appleton has the most NHL games played of anyone. He’s on the cusp of being a regular NHL’er – one could argue maybe even more so than Sami Niku or Kristian Vesalainen – and if not for a handful of trades at the…

Read More →The 2018 NHL draft was a pretty solid one for the Winnipeg Jets that saw one of the picks – defenseman Giovanni Vallati – earn a few votes of consideration but ultimately had two of the picks made that year make our top ten list. We’ve already profiled Declan Chisholm who made it in at…
Read More →When he was drafted in the sixth round of the 2016 NHL Draft, few Jets fans took notice of Mikhail Berdin and really there was not much reason to with the team already stacked in the goaltending prospect department. Connor Hellebuyck and Michael Hutchinson were at the top of the prospect pool with Eric Comrie…
