After an impressive training camp Evgeny Svechnikov‘s AHL deal with the Moose has been bumped up to a one-year, two-way deal with the Jets according to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet who has the terms as $750K in the NHL and $215K in the AHL.

The 2015 1st rounder (19th overall) who was cut loose by the Red Wings has shown quite a bit during training camp in Winnipeg.

Based on skate in Winnipeg yesterday it looks like he will make his debut with the Jets tonight in Anaheim on the 4th line with Riley Nash and Kristian Vesalainen.

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.
