With the news today that the Jets will be without centre Adam Lowry for at least a month they have recalled Kristian Vesalainen from the Moose to join them on the road.   In 44 games with the Moose he has nine goals and 13 assists.

Moose coach Pascal Vincent has been trusting the Jets 2017 1st rounder in a lot of different situations including on the penalty kill.  He has played the last three games on the top line with Logan Shaw and Seth Griffith.

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.
