The Moose morning began with news that two Jets prospect defenceman in Ville Heinola (2020 1st rounder) and Dylan Samberg (2017 2nd rounder) had been reassigned by Winnipeg to their AHL affiliate.  This gives Manitoba an embarrassment of riches for D coach Eric Dubois on the blueline to work with a now augmented group of D prospects which will also include Declan Chisholm (2018 5th rounder), Luke Green (2016 3rd rounder), Leon Gawanke (2017 5th rounder) and Johnny Kovacevic (2017 3rd rounder).

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.
