Luoto had one year remaining on the three-year deal he signed with the Jets back in June of 2019. The childhood friend of Patrik Laine split time between the Moose and Jets playing 29 games in the AHL and 18 games in the NHL.

His most entertaining moment came off the ice when he began an English interview following practice in Finnish.

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.
