Winnipeg Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff breaks down day 1 at 2018 Entry Draft


Topics:  How would he describe the first round and how the evening went for the Jets?  Spark any additional debate when you don’t have a pick in the 1st round?  On the cost of trading into the 1st round.  Did it surprise him that there wasn’t a player for player deal?  On premium aspect of 1st round picks.  Importance of day 2 of the draft.  Because they moved Foley and didn’t sign Stallard does it put the onus on forward any more?

Reminder:  Remember that we have a comprehensive four hour Illegal Curve Hockey Show on TSN 1290 Winnipeg starting at 10 am as we cover the entire second day of the 2018 NHL Entry Draft for the Jets and the draft in general.  We will have interviews with Jets draft picks as well as general manager Kevin Cheveldayoff.

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.
