Manitoba Moose sign Empey, Anhorn & Vitelli to one-year AHL deals

The Manitoba Moose roster was augmented quite significantly last week with all the depth additions the Winnipeg Jets made during free agency. Now it’s the AHL club of Manitoba’s turn to add to their roster depth as the team is set to announce a trio of players inked to one-year deals.

The team is bringing back Tyson Empey who brought a physical element to the game in the 59 he played in a Moose jersey last season. He scored seven goals and added six assists.

Defenceman Dylan Anhorn signed a one-year deal with the Moose out of St. Cloud State of the NCAA in April of 2024. In 47 games for Manitoba in his first season as a pro the smooth-skating Albertan put up three goals and 13 assists for 16 points in 47 games.

Lastly, they are bringing back Winnipegger Reece Vitelli who spent most of last year in the ECHL with the Savannah Ghost Pirates but got into 15 games in Manitoba putting up three assists.
