Jets 2018 3rd rounder Nathan Smith is having an excellent season with 13 goals and 22 assists for 35 points in 24 games which is good enough for top spot in NCAA scoring. He was named to the USA Olympic hockey team on January 13th and spoke about what it means to him to play for his country in Beijing and more in this media availability.

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.
