A 27-year-old Canadian striker Jay She Lipon, who has extensive experience in the American Hockey League (AHL), has traveled to Riga to join the Continental Hockey League (KHL) to the club “Dinamo” in Riga.
Lipons has shared pictures on the social network “Instagram” in which he has said goodbye to his homeland. “It’s crazy 48 hours and I’m having a good time saying goodbye to everyone. However, I love you and am thrilled about the upcoming opportunity in Riga, Latvia, ”writes Lipons.
The hockey player has also started to follow Dinamo club Instagram, which is another indicator that he will join this club.
The media “Championat” has previously announced that the attacker will soon sign a one-year contract with “Dinamo”. Last season, he played for the American Hockey League (AHL) team in Manitoba’s Moose, where he scored 31 (13 + 18) scores in 61 matches.
2015/2016 In nine matches in the National Hockey League (NHL) team, the Jets of Winnipeg “Jets” stood out in nine matches in one season.
“Lipon has good statistics, considering that he has about 1,000 penalty minutes,” said Russian hockey journalist Alexei Shevchenko. “Yes, AHL, yes, Manitoba, but he scored 30 points almost every season. Technical hockey player, played for the U20 national team. I think Ant has invited him to play in the third / fourth shift. Will he also score points for KHL? For now, it is difficult to predict, because we do not know at all what team will be in Riga. We look at the composition and we can figure out some possible sequences, but we have to see what the Ant will do with it all. ”
In 2013, Lipon was chosen by Jets in the third round with the number 91 in the third round. He also represented Canada’s U20 national team in the same year.
Lipon has rich experience in AHL, where he has played in 452 regular championship games in seven seasons and has accumulated 222 (80 + 142) points. From 2016 to 2019, he was an assistant captain of the Moose team.
