The Jets pull off another significant trade hours until deadline!

After acquiring leader and veteran defenseman Luke Schenn in a quick flip from the Pittsburgh Penguins, the Winnipeg Jets have now landed forward Brandon Tanev from the Seattle Kraken, in exchange for a second-round pick in 2027.

Tanev, whose name had been in trade chatters for months, has nine goals and 17 points in 60 games with the Kraken this season.

Originally signed as an undrafted free agent by the Winnipeg Jets in 2016, Tanev makes a return with the Jets. He has 83 goals and 175 points in 533 career games split between the Jets, Pittsburgh Penguins, and Kraken.

He represented Canada at the 2024 World Championship in Czechia, recording four goals and five points in a fourth-place finish.
