Winnipeg Jets prospect Brad Lambert wins WHL Championship with Seattle Thunderbirds

The Seattle Thunderbirds picked up their fourth straight win last night as they defeated the Winnipeg Ice in game 5 in Kent, Washington by a final score of 3-1.

The win means Jets 2022 1st rounder Brad Lambert is a WHL Champion. Lambert finished the playoffs with 6G 20A for 26 points in 17 games. Now he’s off to the Memorial Cup in Kamloops, BC at the end of the month.

Great article on Lambert’s development in the WHL here.

Here was his interview after the game:

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.
