More lineup changes are in order for the Manitoba Moose ahead of Friday night’s home game against the Houston Aeros.

The Vancouver Canucks recalled left-winger Aaron Volpatti this afternoon. He’s likely to get his first NHL game Saturday night against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Volpatti’s addition means a Vancouver subtraction, and that will be winger Jonas Andersson, who has played four games with the Canucks.

Andersson is expected back in Winnipeg for Friday’s home game.

The Moose, 13-10-0-4, will also have right-winger Guillaume Desbiens in the lineup for the first time this season on Friday. He was re-assigned by the Canucks earlier this week.
