Winnipeg Jets acquire Tyler Toffoli from the New Jersey Devils

TSN Insider Darren Dreger is reporting that the “Winnipeg Jets and New Jersey Devils are closing on trade sending Tyler Toffoli to Wpg”. Dreger saying he thinks it’s a 2nd round pick in 2025 and a 3rd round pick in 2024.

That’s big.

Update: Darren Dreger confirms the trade. “Trade call complete. Devils trade Tyler Toffoli to Winnipeg for a 2nd in 2025 and a 3rd in 2024. New Jersey retained 50% of Toffoli’s remaining salary.”

Toffoli has 26 goals and 18 assists for 44 points in 61 games for the Devils. Toffoli won the Stanley Cup with the Los Angeles Kings in 2013-14. It’s interesting to note that Toffoli played with Sean Monahan while both players were members of the Calgary Flames organization (2021-22) as well as when both players played for the OHL’s Ottawa 67’s (2011-2012).

It looks like the Jets 2nd line is solidified now with Nikolaj Ehlers – Sean Monahan – Tyler Toffoli.
