Winnipeg Jets loan Danny Zhilkin and Isaak Phillips to the Manitoba Moose

It has been just a shade over two weeks since the Jets recalled prospect Danny Zhilkin (2022 3rd) who was able to make his NHL debut against the Oilers on January 8th. He played three more games with the last one coming on January 13th against the Islanders.

He got above 10 minutes in just one of the four contests. Since the game against New York he has been a healthy scratch for the last five games.

Additionally with a trio of injured defencemen it gave Isaak Phillips his first chance to be recalled by Winnipeg and play in two games for the Jets.

With the Moose playing two games this weekend against the AHL-leading Griffins it’s a good opportunity to get Zhilkin and Phillips into some games with Manitoba.

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.
