The Jets signed restricted free agent defenceman Simon Lundmark on Friday.

The 25-year-old signed a one-year, two-way contract that will pay him $775,000 if he’s at the NHL level.

The Sweden product has yet to appear in an NHL game and played the last three seasons for the Jets’ top farm club, the AHL’s Manitoba Moose.

In 67 regular-season AHL contests last season, he scored a career-best five goals to go along with 12 helpers to record 17 points for the second straight season.

Lundmark was Winnipeg’s second-round pick (51st overall) in the 2019 NHL draft.

With Lundmark’s signing, restricted free agent forward Cole Perfetti is the only player left in the organization who still needs a new contract for next season.
