The Winnipeg Jets plucked forward Nick Shore off the wire on Wednesday, the club announced.

Winnipeg wasn't the only team interested in his services, as at least one other team put a claim in, according to Sportsnet's Chris Johnston.

The Toronto Maple Leafs placed him on waivers Tuesday. The 27-year-old produced only three points while logging the second-lowest average ice time (9:13) on the team in 21 games this season.

Toronto signed Shore to a one-year, $750,000 contract in July.
