Winnipeg Jets sign RFA Brandon Tanev to a one-year, two-way deal

And then there were just two RFAs left (Jacob Trouba and J.C. Lipon) for Winnipeg.

Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports tweeted that the Jets have signed the Toronto area product to a one-year, two-way deal.  Tanev was signed by Winnipeg back on March 30th when his college season ended with the Providence College Friars.

He played three games during that California road trip for the Jets to close out the 2015-16 season.  He finished with no points while averaging about 12 minutes in ice time.

The team has made it official.  The AAV in the NHL is $874,125.00.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
