Winnipeg Jets reassign prospect Jacob Julien to the Norfolk Admirals from the Moose

It’s been a long and frustrating journey to his first game as a pro but the long wait appears to be over for Jets prospect Jacob Julien (2023 5th) who was injured in early October during training camp which was set to cost him 6-8 weeks and then suffered a setback in early December which cost him more time.

He appears to be over that as we learned this morning that the Jets have reassigned him from the Moose of the AHL to the Admirals of the ECHL.

He will get a chance to get his pro career started in Norfolk perhaps as soon as tomorrow night as the Admirals take on the Thunder in Glens Falls, NY.

If you’d like some insight into the player I sat down with him during training camp for an Extended Minuk Moose Minute which you can watch here.

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.
