Four days ago, Jets prospect Jacob Julien (2023 fifth-round pick) was reassigned from the Moose to the ECHL’s Admirals, marking his long-awaited pro debut after injuries derailed the start of his 2025–26 season.

He played two games for Norfolk and while he didn’t get any points from the limited viewings I saw via FloSports he looked good.

Today, he was reassigned by the Jets back up to the Moose where he could be set to make his AHL debut as soon as tomorrow when Manitoba takes on Rockford.

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.
