Manitoba Moose Release:

The Manitoba Moose announced today that they have reduced their roster by five players following the club’s two pre-season games this past weekend.

The Moose released forwards Mathieu Gagnon, Brant Harris, Brendan O’Donnell and defenceman Mathieu Brodeur from their professional tryout agreements.

Goaltender Jussi Olkinuora has been re-assigned to Manitoba’s ECHL affiliate the Tulsa Oilers.

The moves leave the Moose with 26 players on their roster as they approach the regular season.

The Moose open their 2015-16 AHL regular season schedule this Friday, Oct. 9 when they travel to face the Toronto Marlies at 6 p.m. CT.

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.
