NHL Expansion Draft – Winnipeg Jets Primer

Veteran blueliner Toby Enstrom holds all the cards. If he’s willing to waive his no movement clause the Jets can protect seven forwards, three defensemen and a goalie. If not, unless they are willing to forgo $4.2M-plus in cap space through 2019 by buying him out, they’ll protect four defensemen, four skaters and a goalie. Rumor is he doesn’t want to leave Winnipeg, so don’t count on it going down smoothly.

Forward Decisions

The Jets have a ton of high-quality forwards and fortunately they don’t need to protect most of them since they are so young.
