The Manitoba Moose have come to terms with Jaydon Dureau on a one-year contract beginning this fall.

A product of White City, Saskatchewan, the 24-year-old will look to stick with his second American Hockey League team over the past six seasons, to which he has played parts of each of the past five years with the Syracuse Crunch.

Selected in the fifth round of the 2020 NHL Draft by the Tampa Bay Lightning, Dureau has bounced between the Crunch and Tampa Bay's ECHL affiliate, the Orlando Solar Bears ever year.

Standing six-foot and 176 pounds, the slight winger has yet to find his scoring touch at the AHL level, despite putting up 29 goals and 73 points in 103 ECHL games. In 36 AHL games, he has just three goals and seven points.

Dureau was a point-per-game player at the WHL level, to which he played out his career with the Portland Winterhawks, scoring 65 times and adding 131 assists for 196 points in 207 games. 

The contract is a standard one-year, AHL agreement, meaning he can bounce between the AHL and ECHL with no issue. He would need to sign an NHL deal should the Jets feel the need to recall him to the big league.
