Jets' Negotiations with RFA Cole Perfetti Could be Challenging

No player on the 2023-24 Winnipeg Jets had more of a rollercoaster season than Cole Perfetti, who at 22 years old, completed his first fully healthy NHL season. The fluctuating nature of his season will make for an interesting offseason negotiation between Perfetti, his agent, and Jets' General Manager Kevin Cheveldayoff. Perfetti posted 19 goals, 19 assists, for 38 points in 71 games played. On the 2023-24 Jets, in per 60-minute stats (/60), he finished: Third in Primary assists/60 (0.89) Behind only Mark Scheifele and Nikolaj Ehlers.
