He played until the 6:36 mark of the opening period.

Will have to wait to hear from head coach Rick Bowness.

Update:

As per head coach Rick Bowness he tweaked something in his back but it doesn’t sound serious. Expected to practice next Sunday.

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.
