As the Moose slowly filtered onto the ice for practice this morning at hockey for all centre it was clear that all forwards were present and accounted for.

This was notable as the Jets could have recalled someone to fill Gabriel Vilardi’s spot after the Winnipeg forward went down with an injury in the 1st period of the game last night. Of course the NHL club of Winnipeg would most likely make the recall tomorrow so they’ll have 13 forwards if they need to.

Only skaters missing were Simon Lundmark and Dawson Barteaux.

Health update:

Defenceman Simon Lundmark is day-to-day after he took a shot off the foot.
