The Winnipeg Jets announced their 2019 rookie camp roster, and the group is highlighted by a couple first-round picks.
Kristian Vesalainen (24th overall in 2017) and Ville Heinola (20th overall in 2019) will be among the group of 13 forwards, nine defencemen and two goaltenders attending the annual camp.
The Jets will be taking the ice in the Ottawa Senators’ Rookie Showcase in Belleville, Ont., for the first time. The club had previously been playing in the Young Stars Classic in Penticton, B.C., since moving to Winnipeg in 2011-12.
The young Jets will take on a team of Ottawa Senators prospects on Sept. 6 and 9, and a team of Montreal Canadiens prospects on Sept. 8.
