Drew Stafford had 21 goals in 78 games last season for the Jets but his production this year has decreased significantly along with the number of games he has played due to injury. In 39 games with Winnipeg this season he has four goals and eight assists.

However he will be a UFA at the end of the season and with the trade deadline upcoming he was seen as someone who may garner some interest from a playoff team.

Today, Craig Custance of ESPN tweeted:

With young forwards like Andrew Copp, Marko Dano, Joel Armia not to mention Kyle Connor, Jack Roslovic, Brendan Lemieux and Chase De Leo down with the Moose the veteran forward may well find himself in different colours come this time next week.

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.
