That cap hit is not exactly where I thought it would be which makes it a pretty solid signing by the Jets. Lowry was set to become a UFA after this season.
The 2011 3rd round pick of Winnipeg was having a resurgent season with eight goals and 12 assists for 20 points in 44 games after having 10 points in 49 games the season prior.
Update:
The team has confirmed the extension. Lowry set to speak today at 4:30 PM.
