The Winnipeg Jets have made their first move for free agency in signing Shawn Matthias to a two-year contract at an average of 2.125 million per season.
Matthias is a goal scoring bottom-six player, who also adds some size to the Jets bottom lines at 6’4. He can play on the wing and at centre, which makes him very versatile. Hopefully the Jets can use him with some shot-differential drivers.
Come back later for a more in-depth look to Matthias.
