Defenceman Henry Thrun was absent from the Moose lineup for their game against the Marlies in Winnipeg this evening, and now we know why. The Jets recalled him on an emergency basis.

In 13 games with Manitoba this season, Thrun has one goal and six assists for seven points.
The recall makes sense given that Elias Salomonsson is away from the team due to a personal matter. While the expectation is that Josh Morrissey will be ready to return and Haydn Fleury is fine after blocking a shot (he practiced yesterday), the fact that Thrun was recalled on an emergency basis would seem to suggest Winnipeg has some uncertainty about its ability to dress six defencemen.
