Winnipeg Jets reduce training camp roster to 24 (again)

If you’re wondering why that number is the same as yesterday when they put Jansen Harkins on waivers (he cleared) it’s because today they also made a waiver claim of Axel Jonsson-Fjallby from the Caps. Now technically Jonsson-Fjallby doesn’t count as he requires a work visa so the Jets are at 23 but once that is processed, they will need to make a subsequent move.

But the reason it’s 24 and not 25 is because the team assigned Ville Heinola to the Moose.

The Jets roster had to be at 23 as of this afternoon.

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.
