While it appears the American Hockey League (AHL) won’t be able to complete its season because of the coronavirus pandemic, the Manitoba Moose continue to sign players for next season.
The Moose announced on Tuesday that they’ve re-signed forward Bobby Lynch to a one-year contract for the 2020-21 season.
The 21-year-old only appeared in three games for the hockey club this season. The centreman was held pointless with four penalty minutes and a -2 plus/minus rating.

Prior to turning pro last season, Lynch played for the United States Hockey League’s Muskegon Lumberjacks. He spent the two previous seasons with the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League’s Drummondville Voltigeurs.
