The Winnipeg Jets are reinforcing their team as they head out for their next road games.
On Monday, the team announced the recall of forward Jaret Anderson-Dolan and goalie Chris Driedger from their AHL affiliate, the Manitoba Moose.
Jaret Anderson-Dolan has been productive for the Moose this season, scoring 19 points in 51 games, including seven goals and 12 assists. He joined the Jets as a free agent last summer but is yet to play for the NHL team in a regular season game.
The 25-year-old Calgary native brings NHL experience, having played 127 games over six seasons with the Los Angeles Kings and Nashville Predators, accumulating 28 points (15 goals, 13 assists).
Chris Driedger has played five games for the Moose, recording one win and three losses with a 3.30 goals-against average and a save percentage of .872.
Driedger, 30, originally from Winnipeg, was traded to the Jets from the Florida Panthers just before the trade deadline on March 7, in exchange for goaltender Kaapo Kahkonen. Throughout his NHL career spanning seven seasons with the Ottawa Senators, Panthers, and Seattle Kraken, he has a record of 31-24-5, with a 2.45 GAA and a .917 save percentage in 67 games.
The Winnipeg Jets, currently leading the league with a 51-19-4 record, are on a three-game winning streak. They will begin their three-game road trip on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Kings.
