One moment you’re expecting to head to Pittsburgh for your second ever training camp and instead you are heading to Winnipeg as part of the Jets organization.

Saskatoon product Brayden Yager was acquired by the Jets in late August and today he stepped on the ice with his fellow prospects in the Winnipeg organization as they prepare for the Young Stars Tournament in B.C.

We got a chance to find out more about the 2023 14th overall selection.

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.
