Winnipeg Jets issue a long list of qualifying offers

Fresh off the entry draft we are quickly switching focus to the Jets restricted free agents and this afternoon we learned that the team has sent qualifying offers to all players that were eligible other than 5th round pick in 2011 Austen Brassard who will become a UFA.

This list of Winnipeg players who received qualifying offers according to Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun includes:

Joel Armia, Brenden Kichton, JC Lipon, Adam Lowry, Julian Melchiori, Mark Scheifele, Jacob Trouba and Brandon Tanev.

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.
