Two Draft Picks Head to Pro | Winnipeg News
Description
Two childhood hockey buddies, Kevin He and Kieron Walton, drafted by the Winnipeg Jets, are set to begin their pro careers together with the Manitoba Moose. Both rose through the ranks playing minor hockey together in Toronto, then traded to top OHL teams for championship shots—Walton with 88 points, He with 39 goals and 77 points. Walton, a towering 6’6”, is adding grit to his game, while He brings speed and physicality. Though injuries kept them sidelined during the Moose’s Calder Cup run, being around the pros gave them invaluable insight. Walton’s already played a few Moose games and is eager to build his pro career, while He focuses on adding size and sharpening his explosiveness. With their shared history and mutual support, they’re ready to make their mark in the AHL.
