Ford was loaned to AHL Manitoba on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Ford had been with the Jets since the start of the regular season, and he recorded an assist, 20 hits, 11 blocked shots and four PIM while averaging 9:49 of ice time over 11 appearances. However, Morgan Barron (undisclosed) and Cole Koepke (undisclosed) were activated off injured reserve Monday, so Ford will head to the minors, where he should have more consistent opportunities to play.

Ford notched an assist, three hits and three blocked shots in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Penguins.

EDGE Analysis

The helper was Ford's first point in five appearances this season. He's added plenty of physicality when in the lineup, recording 13 hits and seven blocked shots. The 25-year-old made the Opening Night roster and would need waivers to be sent to AHL Manitoba, but it's possible he'll be involved in a roster move once Adam Lowry (hip) and Cole Perfetti (ankle) get healthy enough to come off injured reserve.

Ford signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Jets on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Ford, who was a restricted free agent before inking this deal, will come with a $812,500 annual cap hit if he plays at the NHL level. He had 14 goals, 21 points and 36 PIM in 41 outings with AHL Manitoba as well as a goal in three appearances with Winnipeg during the 2024-25 regular season. Ford is likely to start this coming season in the AHL.

Ford was recalled from AHL Manitoba on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Ford made three appearances for the Jets during the regular season, recording a goal, five hits and two PIM while averaging 7:50 of ice time. He'll rejoin Winnipeg as the team deals with several injuries during the Stanley Cup Playoffs, but it seems unlikely that Ford will play a sizable role during the postseason.

Ford was reassigned to AHL Manitoba on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The Jets are off until Feb. 22, so Ford will get some playing time in with the Moose. Ford scored in his NHL debut Jan. 30, but he was held off the scoresheet in his last two games. Ford had 11 goals in 36 AHL games before his recall, including seven tallies in his last nine appearances.

Ford was recalled from AHL Manitoba on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Ford's stint in the minors lasted less than 24 hours, so it appears to have been a paper transaction. In addition to the 24-year-old Ford, the Jets also brought up Brad Lambert. There figures to be one spot in the lineup for the duo to compete for ahead of Tuesday's matchup with Carolina.

Ford was loaned to AHL Manitoba on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Ford has one goal, one shot on net, one blocked shot and four hits in two appearances with Winnipeg. During his NHL debut, the 24-year-old forward scored a goal in a 6-2 win over Boston. Ford has 11 goals and 17 points across 36 AHL appearances this season.

Ford scored his first career goal in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Bruins.

EDGE Analysis

Making his NHL debut, the undrafted 24-year-old banged home a rebound to cap a Winnipeg surge that saw the visitors blow the game open with three goals in the first six minutes of the third period. Ford had 11 goals and 17 points over 36 appearances for AHL Manitoba prior to his promotion, and he figures to work in a bottom-six role while Adam Lowry (upper body) and Morgan Barron (upper body) remain sidelined.

Ford was recalled from AHL Manitoba on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The Jets placed Morgan Barron (undisclosed) on injured reserve in a corresponding move. Ford led the Moose with 11 goals over 36 games this season, including seven tallies in his last nine appearances. The Jets have 13 healthy forwards after recalling Ford, and either he or Brad Lambert should line up on the fourth line, alongside David Gustafsson and Alex Iafallo on Thursday in Boston.

Ford was sent down to AHL Manitoba on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Ford was recalled Thursday but was made a healthy scratch for the evening's game versus Vancouver. The 23-year-old center registered 17 goals and 39 points in 70 AHL games before his recall.
