Illegal Curve Hockey

Manitoba Moose Practice Report

The Moose are getting ready for a Thursday and Saturday pair of games with the defending Calder Cup champion Cleveland Monsters (if you’re confused they used to be known as the Lake Erie Monsters last year when they won the title). The Jets recalled Andrew Copp to offset the loss of Shawn Matthias who is expected to miss some time.

The team also announced today that they have signed forward Darcy Murphy from the Tulsa Oilers to a professional tryout agreement. Murphy is in his first pro season and has six points (4G 2A) in seven games in the ECHL.

Today they practiced at the MTS IcePlex and we hear from them following skate:

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.
