Winnipeg Jets v1.0: Where are they now?

[SensibleGuy]

Dave Babych - currently an assistant director of player personnel with the Vancouver Canucks.

buddy of mine is related to the twins that Dave and Wayne were married to back in the 80s or 90s.

Paul Fenton - assistant GM in Nashville and GM of the Admirals of the AHL. I would expect that one day he is the GM of an NHL franchise. He has a pretty good resume.

Randy Gilhen - sells surgical equipment, apparently? Pretty sure he still lives in Winnipeg, I was lab partners with his daughter when I went to U of M.

Tim Cheveldae - a firefighter in rural Saskatchewan. I barely recognized him in his picture.

I wonder if he says "great save by Cheveldae" when he pulls someone out of a burning barn.

Pokey Reddick is Head Coach of the Las Vegas Storm.

If the NHL heads to Vegas Pokey might have a shot!

Joe Daley still has his card shop. And Perry Miller although he only played for the WHA Jets, he used to be the manager at Wise Guys downtown years ago.

I played hockey with Perry Miller for years. Thomas Steen came out a lot... he was the guy that had the majority of my primary assists... meaning he banked pucks in the net off of me

Wayne Babych used to come out to that skate too. I bet they still have it at the Highlander.

God for him. I guess he either got a promotion, or does the motivational speaking on a part time basis.
