Jets' Enstrom waives no-movement clause
Bruce Fedyck-USA TODAY Sports
Winnipeg Jets defenseman Tobias Enstrom has agreed to waive his no-movement clause ahead of the expansion draft, his agent confirmed Saturday to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman.
The move would permit the Jets to shield two other defensemen - Tyler Myers and Jacob Trouba - plus seven forwards, should they opt for the 7-3 protection route.
"(Enstrom) loves Winnipeg and the Jets and wants to stay," wrote his agent, Kalle Boden. "He thinks that the Jets (have) a bright future and wants to be a part of future success. Enstrom absolutely doesn't want to go to Vegas."
Enstrom tallied 14 points in 60 games last season. The 32-year-old has one year remaining on his contract, carrying a $5.75-million cap hit.
