Dylan DeMelo Postgame The Manitoba Moose have recalled goaltender Thomas Milic from the ECHL. The Winnipeg Jets have made the announcement that the youthful backstop has earned a promotion back to the American Hockey League. Having started the season in Manitoba, Milic went on to post pedestrian numbers in his first year of AHL action. The 21-year-old went just 4-10-2 over 17 games for the bottom-feeding Moose. He put up far better numbers in the ECHL to go alongside a .500 record (3-3-0). Milic had a 2.33 goals against average and a .923 save percentage with the Norfolk Admirals. Last year with Norfolk, Milic had an impressive 11-3-2 record. With Kaapo Kahkonen earning a call-up to Winnipeg in place of goaltender Connor Hellebuyck, the Moose are down a body in goal. Milic will fill that void as long as available. Manitoba is on the road in Laval on Wednesday for the first test of a two-game, week-day set, to which the team will look to bounce back from a lopsided home loss to Milwaukee on Monday.
