On paper this was a battle of the top team in the AHL in winning percentage (Wolves) against the fifth best squad (Moose) but Manitoba came into this game significantly undermanned not having seven of their regular forwards in the lineup either due to recall up to the Jets, injury or being in covid protocol.

Moose lineup:

Lynch – Meireles – Egle
Polei – Alfaro – Burgess
Jones – Maier – Nogier
Pelton-Byce – Boland – Caron

Oligny-Kovacevic
Chisholm – Gawanke
Stewart – Lundmark

Cormier
Desorsiers

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.
