The Winnipeg Jets Hockey Club, in conjunction with its AHL affiliate, the Manitoba Moose, announced today defenceman Brenden Kichton has been re-assigned to the Moose.

Kichton was called up from the Moose on Friday on an emergency basis. Kichton has played 62 games for the Moose this season, leading the team with 34 points (9G, 25A) along with 36 penalty minutes. Kichton has yet to play in his first NHL game.

He will not be in the lineup when the Moose host the Charlotte Checkers Saturday night at 7 p.m. at the MTS Centre.
