By his own admission, Joel Armia was in shock after the Buffalo Sabres traded him to the Winnipeg Jets in February.
"Of course it was probably hard for me," the 22-year-old from Pori, Finland said Saturday at the MTS Iceplex after Day 2 of the Winnipeg Jets development camp. "A little bit harder because it was my first trade and that doesn’t happen in Europe a lot."
The quiet right-winger then put his finger on exactly how it affected him.
"You have all your teammates in Rochester and then you go to a whole new team, new staff," he said.
