If Jets fans are reading that headline and thinking the name Giovanni Vallati is a familiar one it is because Winnipeg called his name out at the 2018 draft in Dallas in the 5th round.

The left shooting defenceman spent four seasons in the OHL split between Kitchener and Oshawa.  The Jets didn’t sign Valatti by June 1st, 2020 which meant he was eligible to go into the 2020 draft.

Today the Jets AHL affiliate Manitoba announced they had signed Valatti to an amateur tryout offer.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
