I’m not usually one to recommend the Winnipeg Sun, but I have often thought our team seemed a little light on home-grown talent.
If it’s as hard to attract talent to Winnipeg as they say, why aren’t we more committed to developing from the massive pool of local players?

I couldn’t care less where a guy grew up, personally.

Or we just drafted whoever we thought was the best player given our position in the draft? Where someone grew up should not be a factor.

Not picking Manitoba products is not the problem with Jets drafting/scouting. It is not finding enough gritty determined players, like all four of the Manitobans Vegas has.
