Jets have gotten their third of four RFAs locked in as they announced the signing of JC Lipon to a one-year, two-way contract with an average annual value of $650,000.  The Jets 2013 3rd round pick spent all of last season with the Manitoba Moose of the AHL playing 71 games adding 12 goals and 18 assists.  The Regina, Saskatchewan native played nine games for the Jets back in 2015-16.

This leaves goalie Connor Hellebuyck as the lone unsigned RFA for Winnipeg.

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.
