Winnipeg Jets Transaction Report: Kristian Vesalainen also reassigned to the taxi squad

Kristian Vesalainen was paired up with David Gustafsson on a line last night and today he will join his fellow Jets prospect on the taxi squad as the team also made that announcement today.  As an aside I thought the two prospects with Trevor Lewis looked very good against the Flames on Thursday and I know I’m not the only one.

This moves saves the Jets real dollars (but not cap space).

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.
