Jets re-sign Pionk

Winnipeg Jets: The Jets have signed defenseman Neal Pionk to a two-year contract with an AAV of $3 million.

The Jets had acquired Pionk in the Jacob Trouba trade back in June.

Scott Billeck: The Winnipeg Jets have around $19.8 million in salary cap space with 16 players under contract. Andrew Copp, Patrik Laine and Kyle Connor remained un-signed.

After Copp is signed and adding remaining roster players, they should have around $15.2 million in space left for both Laine and Connor.

Scott Billeck: The Jets could also gain another $2.89 million in salary cap space this year by buying out defenseman Dmitry Kulikov in the second buyout window. It would add a $1.44 million cap hit for 2020-21.
