WINNIPEG – Watch out Adam Lowry.

There’s a new kid in town and he’s going after your spot. By the way, did we mention he’s only 10 years old?

Connolly Gamble was called up by the Winnipeg Jets just in time for Saturday afternoon’s practice at MTS Centre. The Calgary boy got the chance to skate with the team after being selected as a Make-A-Wish recipient.

Doctors discovered Gamble had a brain tumour while putting him through baseline concussion testing. Fortunately, the tumour is non-life threatening.

Always great to see when kids with a tough go get a treat like this.

Not a risky Gamble at all for the Jets with that signing - that’s a win-win all around.

Awesome to see. Love it when teams do this.

Go Connolly Go!

^ Gene Príncipe is that you ?

Great on the Jets organization.

The way the Jets are playing the kid has a legit shot at making the roster very soon.
