Returned to AHL Yager was assigned to AHL Manitoba on Saturday.

Recalled from minors Yager was brought up from AHL Manitoba on Sunday under emergency conditions.
Impact Yager produced 10 goals and 30 points in 68 minor-league outings this season. It's unclear if he will play during Winnipeg's upcoming two-game road trip, but he could make his NHL debut as soon as Monday's matchup against Vegas.
APRIL 12 • ROTOWIRE
Nabs two assists for Moose Yager registered two assists in AHL Manitoba's 3-2 win over Texas on Saturday.
Impact With that performance, Yager has his first multi-point effort in the AHL. The 20-year-old forward has had an unremarkable start to his professional career with six points over 12 outings this season. He had 52 points in 33 regular-season games with WHL Lethbridge last season. Yager clearly still needs some time to adjust to the pro ranks, but he should be a fine addition to the Jets' roster in a year or two, though perhaps as a player with more value on the ice than in fantasy.

Called up Friday Yager was recalled from WHL Lethbridge on Friday.
Impact Yager will link up with the Jets following the conclusion of his WHL season. For the Hurricanes, the 20-year-old center notched 14 goals and 38 assists in 33 regular-season contests before adding another 14 points in 16 playoff games. Yager figures to link up with the other Black Aces that Winnipeg added and is unlikely to see minutes. Still, Yager should be in the mix for a spot on the roster heading into the 2025-26 campaign.
MAY 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Holding steady Yager has racked up 21 goals and 39 assists over 38 games between WHL Moose Jaw and Lethbridge.
Impact Yager started the year as Moose Jaw's captain, but he was involved in a midseason trade to aid Lethbridge's push to stay competitive. He also suited up for Canada during the World Junior Championship, earning three assists over five games. On the whole, Yager's production is close to his pace from last season (95 points over 57 regular-season outings). The Jets' excellent 2024-25 means they won't have any need to rush Yager to the NHL -- the 20-year-old is likely a year or two away from competing for a spot with the big club considering the Jets have prospects like Brad Lambert and Chaz Lucius percolating with AHL Manitoba.
