When Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff spoke with us in the Matt Frost Media Centre his club had made two moves on the first day of free agency adding goalie Eric Comrie back to the fold on a two-year deal and goalie Kaapo Kahkonen to a one-year deal.
Please Note: If you’re wondering why he wasn’t asked about signing Colin Miller to a two-year deal it is because this signing happened after this media availability.
