But the Winnipeg Jets didn’t just lose Paul Stastny. Matt Hendricks signed in Free Agency with the Minnesota Wild. The fourth liner inked a one year, $700,00 contract with the Wild.

He spent six years in the minors after four years in college, spending almost a decade between being drafted and making the NHL. But he got there, at 27, for four games.
