The Winnipeg Jets organization announced the signings of Dylan Anhorn, Tyson Empey, and Reece Vitelli to the Manitoba Moose, as per Murat Ates.

The Manitoba Moose roster underwent quite a number of changes last week, with all of the depth additions the Winnipeg Jets made during the start of the free-agency period.

All three signings the Moose made were one-year deals

Now it's the AHL club, the Manitoba Moose's turn to add to their roster depth as the team has just announced the signings of three players to one-year deals, which was reported by NHL insider Murat Ates.

Defenceman Dylan Anhorn signed a one-year deal with the Moose out of St. Cloud State of the NCAA back in April of 2024 and definitely did not disappoint.

In 47 games for Manitoba in his first season as a pro, the smooth-skating player from Alberta put up three goals and 13 assists for a total of 16 points in 47 games.

The team is bringing back Tyson Empey, who brought a physical element to the game in the 59 contests he played in a Moose jersey during the last season. He scored seven goals and added six assists for a total of 13 points.

And finally, the team is also bringing back Winnipegger Reece Vitelli, who spent most of last year in the ECHL with the Savannah Ghost Pirates. He did get into 15 games in Manitoba, where he did not score any goals but managed to put up three assists.

The future now looks pretty bright, not just for the NHL Jets, but also for the AHL Moose.
