Winnipeg’s hockey management continued to reshape its blue line this offseason, announcing the signing of 24‑year‑old defenseman Henry Thrun to a one‑year, two‑way contract that carries an $850,000 salary cap hit. Thrun, a fourth‑round selection of the Anaheim Ducks in 2019, previously navigated a trade that sent Ryan Reaves to San Jose before landing with the Toronto Maple Leafs, where he began to carve out a more prominent role. The 2025‑26 campaign marked a breakout for Thrun in the AHL, as he posted 23 points in 55 games with the Toronto Marlies and then helped the club capture the Calder Cup, contributing nine points over 24 playoff appearances.
