16. Kristian Vesalainen, LW, Jets
Age: 19 // Drafted: 24th overall, 2017
Vesalainen is a dangerous power forward thanks to his ability to make slick plays from in tight. He can outthink and outmuscle defenders trying to thwart his rushes to the cage.
21. Sami Niku, LHD, Jets
Age: 21 // Drafted: 198th overall, 2015
Talk about the rich getting richer. Niku went from being Winnipeg's seventh-round pick in 2015 to winning the AHL's top defenseman award last year, in his rookie season no less.
