WINNIPEG – With a full compliment of players at Mondays practice the Winnipeg Jets have re-assigned forward Patrice Cormier to the Manitoba Moose. He was called up last Wednesday after the injury to forward Andrew Copp but Copp is back practicing with the team after missing four games with an upper body injury.
Cormier, 25, appeared in one game since his call up from the Moose on November 4, dressing against the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday. Playing on the Jets fourth line Cormier had an even +/- and registered one shot and one hit while garnering 3:53 of ice time.
