Ranking the top 10 Winnipeg Jets players of all time
6. Dave Babych, D, 1980-86
Babych was highly coveted coming out of the junior ranks, being selected No. 2 overall by Winnipeg in the 1980 NHL Draft. And most fans would say he lived up to the hype. He immediately became a key contributor as a 19-year-old with 44 points in his rookie season. He would go on to make two All-Star appearances before he was traded to Hartford in 1985.
Dave Babych on the love he gets from fans to this day 猬囷笍 | | |
