Matt Wellens talks about Jets 2017 2nd rounder Dylan Samberg

On today’s Illegal Curve Hockey Show we spoke with Duluth News Tribune reporter Matt Wellens, who covers the NCAA Minnesota Duluth Bulldogs,  about Jets 2017 2nd round draft pick defenceman Dylan Samberg.

Samberg had six goals and 11 assists in 34 games in his second season in the NCHC and is currently getting set with his teammates to compete in the Frozen Faceoff championship game this evening.

Matt provided his insight into the Jets prospect:

How would he assess Samberg’s year to date?

What might Samberg’s plans be (i.e stay in college, sign pro)?
