Defenceman Haydn Fleury and forward Mason Shaw inked identical one-year, two-way contracts with the Jets, each with an average annual NHL value of $775,000.

Fleury, a 27-year-old Saskatchewan native, was a first-round (seventh overall) draft pick of the Carolina Hurricanes in 2014, and in addition to suiting up in Carolina, has spent time on the rosters of the Anaheim Ducks, Seattle Kraken and most recently, Tampa Bay Lightning.
