The Winnipeg Jets re-signed forward Vladislav Namestnikov to a two-year contract with an average annual value of $2 million, the team announced.
The club is also reuniting with goaltender Laurent Brossoit on a one-year, $1.75-million contract.
Namestnikov recorded eight goals and 17 assists in 77 games between the Tampa Bay Lightning and Jets last season. The 30-year-old can play both center and wing.
Brossoit spent three years with the Jets from 2018-21 and returns to Winnipeg following a two-year stint with the Vegas Golden Knights. The 30-year-old veteran posted a sparkling .927 save percentage in 11 contests with the Knights last season. He owns a .908 mark for his career.
