“In Winnipeg, Logan Stanley’s name is out there and teams are also turning to winger Cole Perfetti. He would be Winnipeg’s most valuable trade chip outside of their biggest roster players. Perfetti is still two years away from UFA eligibility, so the Jets need to consider his future and decide if he’s worth a long-term extension soon. He’s off my list for now, but it’s a name I’ll be keeping a close eye on next week.”
Perfetti signed a two-year, $6.5 million contract on September 23, 2024, expiring after the 2025–26 season, when he will become a restricted free agent.
There is certainly some thinking to be done for GM Kevin Cheveldayoff.
The Whitby, Ont. Native was primed for a breakout season after recording 50 points (18G, 32A) in 82 games last year, but he, like many of his teammates, hasn’t had the year many expected. You could say that the ankle injury he suffered in preseason did him no favors, as he only made his season debut at the beginning of November. The loss of Nikolaj Ehlers on the second line also seemed to impact his production more than expected.
The former first-round pick has scored seven goals and 12 assists in 43 games this season.
