Winnipeg Jets loan Elias Salomonsson to the Moose

We saw Haydn Fleury on the ice at morning skate as the Jets got set to take on the Stars.

The presumption was, provided Fleury was good following skate, the team would need to make a move in order to be compliant of the 23-man roster rules.

Sure enough the Jets announced top D prospect Elias Salomonsson had been loaned back to the Moose.

Salomonsson was able to make his NHL debut and played in four games for Winnipeg. He averaged close to 15 minutes of ice time per game.

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.
