Jaffray, 27, has played in 17 games so far this season with the Moose where he leads the team in goals with 12 and is second on the team in total points with 17. He is currently sixth in the entire AHL in goal-scoring and leads the team with five powerplay goals and also has three game-winning goals. His nine-game point streak earlier this season included a natural hat-trick on Nov. 15 vs. Toronto. The Olds, AB native has played in 224 games as a Moose in his seven-year pro career. In that time, he has 201 points (84-117-201). He also played in 19 games with the Canucks last season where he scored six points (2-4-6).
