Nelson Nogier News

With Sami Niku and Josh Morrissey both hurt, Nogier could make his season debut on Thursday. The 23-year-old defenseman has one goal, eight assists (nine points) and a minus-15 rating in 55 AHL games this season.

Nogier was recalled prior to Tuesday’s game as an extra defenseman. His return to Manitoba suggests that Josh Morrissey will be available for Thursday’s game.

Winnipeg’s blueline remains in flux and Nogier could make his season debut on Tuesday. The 6-foot-3, 208 lbs. defenseman had just nine points (1G / 8A) in 74 AHL games last season. He has not recorded a point in 11 career NHL games.

Nogier had just nine points (1G / 8A) in 74 games with Manitoba (AHL) last year and has appeared 11 career NHL games since being drafted in the fourth-round in 2014. Nogier will open 2020 with the Moose but could be the first call-up for the Jets blueline.

Nogier, 20, has two goals and 11 assists (13 points) in 57 games with Manitoba this season and he could make his NHL debut this week. The Jets’ blueline is banged up, so the former fourth round pick could draw into the lineup.
