Winnipeg Jets prospect Brayden Yager first media availability with new Lethbridge Hurricanes team

It’s been an incredibly busy day for Jets prospect Brayden Yager (2023 1st rounder) who was named to the Team Canada World Junior invite camp and then shortly thereafter was involved in a WHL trade which sent him from Moose Jaw in his home province to Lethbridge, Alberta about 5.5 hours west.

In a weird coincidence his first game with his new team will be Tuesday night against his old team.

He spoke with the media as a member of the Hurricanes for the first time today.

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.
