The Jets first got a 6th round conditional pick in 2018 from the Bruins when they traded Drew Stafford at the trade deadline. This improved to a 5th rounder when Boston clinched a playoff spot and included Drew Stafford playing in 50% of the games down the stretch.

The pick could have improved to a 4th rounder had Boston advanced but after being eliminated today by Ottawa the pick will stay as a 5th rounder in 2018.

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.
