Winnipeg Jets Transaction Report: Five moves made ahead of games vs Wings

The Jets are in Michigan where they are set to take on the Wings this evening.

They are already shorthanded and they announced this morning that veteran centre Paul Stastny has been placed in Covid protocol.

This means Jets have six players in Covid protocol as Nikolaj Ehlers, Logan Stanley, Nathan Beaulieu, Kristian Reichel and Ville Heinola.

They also announced that Cole Perfetti has been reassigned to the Jets from the taxi squad. This move was expected given he was set to play on the top line with Pierre-Luc Dubois and Kyle Connor.

And with the Moose coming off their improbable 2-0 win last night in Milwaukee and heading to Michigan today the Jets announced goalie Mikhail Berdin and forwards Austin Poganski and Jeff Malott have all been reassigned to the taxi squad.

Just wild.

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.
