As junior hockey playoffs starts to conclude it will be an opportunity for some Jets draft picks to gain some pro experience. The Jets announced that they have assigned left-shot defenceman Dmitry Kuzmin (2021 3rd rounder) to the Moose. He was actually the first prospect from the Jets 2021 draft to sign his three-year ELC with Winnipeg.
He has spent the past two seasons in the OHL with the Firebirds. He saw his playoffs come to an end after they lost game 7 to Saginaw although he did have two assists on the three goals his club scored. In total the offensively minded defenceman had one goal (a game-winner) and seven assists for eight points in seven games for Flint.
He joins a Moose club already deep on the left side.
