Winnipeg Jets sign Sam Gagner to a one-year contract

Jets added some veteran savy to the mix when they announced this morning that they have signed Sam Gagner to a one-year contract worth $750,000.00

The London, Ontario product was drafted by the Oilers 6th overall back in 2007. The right shot centre/winger has played 967 career games spending the last two seasons in Detroit where he had 31 pts (13G, 18A) with the Red Wings last season.

Coincidentally his 500th point in the NHL actually came against the Jets in Winnipeg this past season.

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.
