The Winnipeg Jets bid farewell to a franchise icon and long-time captain this past summer, but unfortunately, he's just been dealt the worst news possible.
During their latest game, Blake Wheeler went down with what looked to be a devastating injury, and now the New York Post is reporting it's just as bad as it first appeared.
In his first season since leaving the Jets, Wheeler put up 9 goals and 12 assists in 54 games for the Rangers, but now they will be looking to make a major move ahead of the deadline to replace an incredibly valuable player and a presence on the ice.
