The netminder was drafted in the 5th round at the 2023 draft in Nashville. He was coming off winning WHL goalie of the year honours for his play with the Seattle Thunderbirds.

He is still likely be heading to Norfolk, the ECHL affiliate of the Jets/Moose, where he’ll play big minutes given that Manitoba will have two experienced goalies in Oskari Salminen and Collin Delia (provided he gets put on waivers and gets down to the Moose). If Delia doesn’t then Milic could be with the Moose and getting chances to develop in the AHL.

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.
