2022 NHL Draft prospect profile: Jagger Firkus has got the moves

There is more to undersized forward Jagger Firkus than just a kickass name. During this, his breakout season with Saskatchewan’s Moose Jaw Warriors, he has demonstrated an elaborated ability to create offence, in more ways than one.

Birthplace: Irma, Alberta
Date of birth: April 29, 2004
Shoots: Right
Position: Forward
Height: 5’10”
Weight: 154 lbs.
Team: Moose Jaw Warriors (WHL)
