Winnipeg Jets recall Kristian Vesalainen from Moose; reassign Mikhail Berdin

The Jets had recalled Mikhail Berdin from the Moose yesterday to backup Eric Comrie in last night’s game against the Stars as number one netminder Connor Hellebuyck was away from the team celebrating the birth of his son.

The Jets are off today but the team announced that they had reversed the transaction they made on Tuesday whereby they have now recalled Kristian Vesalainen and have returned Mikhail Berdin to Manitoba.

The Moose are set to depart on Thursday for a six-game road trip.

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.
