TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button talks about potential Winnipeg Jets selections at number 10

The 2020 NHL Draft is eight days away and there has been and will continue to be plenty of air time and ink spent dissecting the potential selections that will be made prior to the virtual draft getting underway.

On Saturday’s Illegal Curve Hockey Show on TSN 1290 Winnipeg we had TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button on the show to preview the draft (you can hear the full interview here).

One prospect that folks around Manitoba will be very familiar with is Seth Jarvis from Winnipeg (who we had later on the show which you can hear here) of the Portland Winterhawks.

Another player who folks in Winnipeg wouldn’t mind seeing in a Jets uniform patrolling the blueline is Jake Sanderson who was born and raised in Montana and will be playing college hockey for the University of North Dakota.

While it is uncertain as to whether either of these two will be available when the Jets virtually draft a player at number 10 what is known is that there will be plenty of good options for Winnipeg with that pick.

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.
