TANEV JUMPS IN:
After going pointless in his Moose debut on Friday, Brandon Tanev made his mark on Sunday's affair. Re-assigned to the Moose earlier in the week, Tanev picked up an assist in the first period and scored in the second, AHL firsts in both situations. Prior to joining the Moose, Tanev registered four points (2G, 2A) in 35 games with the Winnipeg Jets.
CAPTAIN CONTRIBUTES:
Patrice Cormier has points in three of his last four games with four points (2G, 2A) over that stretch. The Moose captain has eight points (5G, 3A) on the year and is tied for fifth on the team in goals. Cormier needs just two more games to play his 300th in the AHL.
HELPING OUT:
Jimmy Lodge continues to build on his productive second pro season. Lodge is on a career high three game assist-streak entering the week's action and has points in four of his last five games. The Downingtown, PA native set another career-high last game, surpassing his 2015-16, 44-game, mark of 30 shots on goal. Lodge has 32 shots in 26 games this season.
GLENNIE PLAYS GAME 250:
Scott Glennie played his 250th AHL game on Friday. The Winnipeg, MB native made his AHL debut April 6, 2011 with the Texas Stars and played 230 games with Texas before joining the Moose this season. In 250 games, Glennie has 128 points (49G, 79A). This season, the former first rounder has 10 points (3G, 7A) in 21 games.
2016 IN THE BOOKS:
With the 2016 portion of the season in the rear view mirror, it's a chance to look back on the year that was for the Manitoba Moose. The team played 77 games in 2016, posting a record of 29-37-6-5. Chase De Leo led the Moose with 37 points (17G, 20A) in 70 games while Scott Kosmachuk posted 38 points (17G, 16A).

Friday, Dec. 30: Charlotte 3 at Manitoba 2 OT
The final Moose game of 2016 saw Manitoba jump out to a 2-0 lead early in the second period. Kyle Connor cashed in on a five-on-three powerplay 25 seconds into the frame and Kevin Czuczman added insurance just moments later after the second penalty expired. Charlotte responded with goals nine seconds apart from Jake Chelios and Levko Koper. In overtime, Lucas Wallmark struck to give Charlotte the extra point in a 3-2 Checkers win.
Sunday, Jan. 1: Charlotte 1 at Manitoba 4
Looking to bounce back in their first game of 2017, the Moose took a 1-0 lead in the first off the stick of Patrice Cormier. The second frame saw the Manitoba build on the lead with markers from Brendan Lemieux and Brandon Tanev. The Checkers made it 3-1 five minutes into the third when Andrew Poturalski tallied a powerplay goal, but Scott Kosmachuk replied with a powerplay strike of his own to leave the score at 4-1. Ondrej Pavelec made 26 saves in the win.
