Jacksonville Icemen undrafted 3rd year defenseman/forward Dajon Mingo(10) gets a well-deserved 1st loan up to Manitoba Moose on a pto.
He only played one AHL game without recording a point but was a +1 rating in a one goal loss before being returned.
The smallish 5’8″ 174 lbs. very mobile blue liner is off to his best start in his 2nd season with the team scoring 5 goals and 11 assists in 22 ECHL games, which is on pace to become career highs.
He attended Bowling Green University after a pair of 20+ goal campaigns in the NAHL and started a fifth year at college before deciding to leave and turn pro with Toledo Walleye.
At 28-years old, the former very young figure skater may only have so much time remaining to be considered for call-ups but could also be making an argument that he could play at a higher level.
