The Winnipeg Jets coaching staff and management on Sunday afternoon submitted a 23-player roster ahead of Monday's 4 p.m. CT deadline
The Winnipeg Jets went into training camp with just a handful of roster spots up for grabs. And those spots were for the “extras” up front and on the blue line.
That was the end result of forward Axel Jonsson-Fjallby, defenceman Kyle Capobianco, and goalie Collin Delia being placed on NHL waivers, presumably for the purpose of being assigned to the AHL Manitoba Moose. Going into the weekend, there was also a question surrounding the health of Nikolaj Ehlers. The veteran forward was not on the ice for Friday’s practice after missing most of training camp and all of the exhibition schedule with neck spasms.Raptors forward Achiuwa out with left groin strain
It will be the second time Winnipeg has met the Flames in their regular season opener. The first matchup was during the pandemic season, when Patrik Laine scored the game-winner in overtime for a 4-3 victory at an empty Canada Life Centre. Jan. 14, 2021 , would also turn out to be Laine’s final game in a Jets uniform as nine days later he would be traded to Columbus, along with Jack Roslovic, in exchange for Pierre-Luc Dubois and a 2022 third-round draft pick .
