The Jets have until 4 PM CT on Monday to submit their roster to start the 2023-24 season. Winnipeg made three moves today placing Kyle Capobianco, Collin Delia and Axel Jonsson-Fjallby on waivers.
The likely 23-man roster:
Goalies (2): Connor Hellebuyck and Laurent Brossoit
Defencemen (8): Josh Morrissey, Brenden Dillon, Dylan DeMelo, Neal Pionk, Nate Schmidt, Logan Stanley, Dylan Samberg and Declan Chisholm.
Forwards (13): Mark Scheifele, Cole Perfetti, Nikolaj Ehlers, Kyle Connor, Adam Lowry, Gabe Vilardi, Mason Appleton, Morgan Barron, Alex Iafallo, Rasmus Kupari, Nino Niederreiter, Vlad Namestnikov and David Gustafsson.
This is what the Jets lines and D pairs could end up looking like for game 1 of the regular season on Wednesday night in Calgary provided Ehlers is good to go.
