Manitoba Moose name Patrice Cormier as team captain

With the departure of last year’s captain John Albert to play overseas the Manitoba Moose were in need of a new leader.  The team signed the 2008 draft pick back on August 30th to a one year AHL deal, at which point I speculated that we may see the C adjourning his uniform for the 2016-17 season.  He has played all his AHL and NHL games within the Thrashers/Jets organization (52 NHL & 275 AHL) since the 2010-11 season.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
