Winnipeg Jets sign prospect Nikita Chibrikov to a two-year extension

While training camp signings aren’t unexpected this deal was, as Jets prospect Nikita Chibrikov has a two-year extension with the team that drafted him in the 2nd round of the 2021 NHL Draft.

It was announced by his agent Dan Milstein on twitter worth 850K and 900K at the NHL level which takes him to the 2027-28 season.

He will be an RFA for the 2028-29 season.

The 22-year old has five NHL games with the Jets under his belt (3G 1A) and is in the mix for more this season.

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.
