Winnipeg Jets place Jansen Harkins on waivers

As per Elliotte Friedman the Jets have placed Jansen Harkins on waivers for assignment to the Moose. The 2015 2nd rounder went down to the minors already this season and really excelled for Manitoba earning himself a recall. In his six AHL games he had five goals and four assists.

In 22 games for the Jets this season he has three goals and two assists.

It seemed clear that head coach Rick Bowness wasn’t overly enamoured with the BC product as he was asked about his play before the game against the Canucks last Thursday and his response was

“It’s been ok. Let’s just leave it at that. It’s been ok.”

Follow up asked if there was any area he’d like to see more of and his reply was:

“Just a little bit better in all areas actually.”

The Moose head east for six games and Harkins would be a huge boost if he makes it to them.

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.
