Manitoba Moose trim roster by four

Manitoba has reduced their roster by four players although it actually increased by four (via the eight players re-assigned by Winnipeg this morning).  Four of the players that Winnipeg sent down will have to clear waivers (Pavelec, Strait, Melchiori and Peluso) which is likely why the Moose roster isn’t higher than 25.

Moose Release:

The Manitoba Moose announced today the team has assigned defenceman Tyson Wilson to the Tulsa Oilers (ECHL).  The Moose also released the following players from their tryouts:

Darik Angeli
Kale Kessy (Tulsa – ECHL)
Zack Kamrass (Florida – ECHL)

The Manitoba Moose roster sits at 25 players including 16 forwards, 7 defencemen and 2 goaltenders.

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.
