The Winnipeg Jets announced today they signed defenseman Logan Stanley and forward David Gustafsson to two-year contracts.
Both players were RFA's, and WInnipeg managed to lock each of them up to two-year deals. Stanley will make $1.25 million per year, while Gustafsson will earn $835,000 yearly.
While the Jets have been busy making trades and signing players, their GM still has a lot of work to do this offseason, as several of their other key players are still without contract extensions.
