Like many members of the Moose it was a tough 2024-25 season in the AHL to start for Parker Ford. In early January he would get going scoring 10 goals in his final 14 games which may have continued except in that 14th game he suffered a season ending injury which required surgery. During that hot streak he also made his NHL debut with the Jets on the road in Boston, which is the closest NHL building to his hometown of Wakefield, Rhode Island, and where he scored his first NHL goal during said debut. He played three NHL games for Winnipeg.

It will be interesting to see if he can be in the mix for a forward job once training camp concludes.

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.
