SIGNED: Stuart Skinner Signs With Canadian Team

The Winnipeg Jets are adding another NHL-tested goalie, signing Stuart Skinner as free agency continues to move fast. Per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet, Skinner is signing with Winnipeg on a two-year deal worth $3.75 million per season.  For a Jets team that had a rough step back last season, this is a pretty clear move to stabilize the crease behind Connor Hellebuyck and give them another goalie with real workload experience.

Are We Getting Better?

It's hard for me to understand what direction the NHL's Winnipeg Jets are headed in based on what they cay compared to what they do. I understand that a trade for Connor Hellebuyck hasn't materialized, but we need to be honest in looking at other aspects of the team that can be improved in order to keep their star goalie happy in his crease.
