Nikolaj Ehlers will be bigger and stronger when he chases a spot with the Winnipeg Jets this fall.
The Jets top pick in 2014 said Friday on the first day of the team’s Development Camp that he has put on 14 pounds since the end of the season while working with a trainer this offseason. He now tops the scales at 175 pounds.
"I don’t really have a goal that I have to weigh," said Ehlers. "I’m just trying to work my way up there, not get too heavy… just try to balance it and still have my speed.
