The Winnipeg Jets have signed veteran center Sam Gagner to a one-year contract worth $750,000, the team announced Friday.
Gagner has spent the last two-plus seasons with the Detroit Red Wings. In 2021-22, he notched 31 points in 81 games while averaging 13 minutes per contest and winning 46.7% of his draws.
Detroit was the sixth stop of the former first-round pick's career. He'd also previously suited up for the Edmonton Oilers (in two separate stints), Arizona Coyotes, Philadelphia Flyers, Columbus Blue Jackets, and Vancouver Canucks.
