Winnipeg Jets Young Stars prep: Chat with Nikita Chibrikov

Jets 2021 2nd rounder Nikita Chibrikov’s talent is evident when you see him on the ice. He’s back in Winnipeg to prepare for the Young Stars Tournament which gets underway at the end of the week in B.C. He details how he’s preparing for this tournament, his summer, his skepticism that his teammate is 25 not 18, his improved English and more.

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.
