End of Manitoba Moose 2021-22 Season media availability with Jets prospect David Gustafsson

It was a solid season in the AHL for Jets 2018 2nd rounder David Gustafsson although things didn’t go quite as swimmingly in the NHL as he was injured in the 1st periods of both games he played in. And he revealed to us in his media availability that they were not insignificant injuries as he was dealing with both an MCL injury and a high-ankle sprain this campaign. Despite these setbacks at the NHL level he continued to contribute in the AHL. He set a new career high for goals (15), assists (15) and points (30) in 47 games for Manitoba.

His goal will be a spot with the Jets next season. However, the RFA will first need a new contract this summer before he gets back to Winnipeg.
