The Winnipeg Jets did not take drastic steps to improve their roster. They didn’t really need to, and any attempt at doing so would have looked a bit desperate considering the landscape.
After failing to retain Paul Stastny, there just wasn’t much to do outside of the trade market, and you never really know what’s available.
I’ve already pined for the Jets to trade for a few players that have been moved this off-season. Max Pacioretty was one, and he went to Vegas. Jeff Skinner was another, and he was given away to Buffalo.
