Manitoba Moose Playoff Practice Report

A second straight day of practice for the Moose as they ready themselves for a pivotal game three tomorrow night where it is win or go home as they find themselves down 0-2 in their best of five series with the Admirals. While the shot volume has been significant for Manitoba the quality of those shots and having players in front to screen/bang home a rebound hasn’t quite been where it needs to be.

Roster moves:

With Nashville getting eliminated on Monday their farm club in Milwaukee got three players back: Goalie Connor Ingram, Mathieu Olivier and Winnipegger Cody Glass. It will be interesting to see who they use in net considering how good Devin Cooley has been vs Moose.

Eyssimont-Gustafsson-Barron
Malott-Suess-Poganski
Polei-Maier-Jones
