Ryan Dixon of Sportsnet: The Winnipeg Jets added third-line center Cody Eakin yesterday for a mid-round draft pick. They also acquired defenseman Dylan DeMelo from the Ottawa Senators earlier in the week. It’s doubtful there is a trade out there that would turn them into serious contenders but GM Kevin Cheveldayoff is rewarding the team with few helpful additions to make a run for the playoffs.
The Jets could still use a little help on the backend.
Assets that they may consider moving include Jack Roslovic, or one of their higher-end forwards.
