With the Stanley Cup playoffs just days away, one member of the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Winnipeg Jets has more to celebrate than just the club’s stellar play this season.
Alex Iafallo is coming back to the Manitoba capital, the Jets announced Wednesday, after signing a three-year contract extension beginning in the 2025-26 season.
The 31-year-old winger from Eden, N.Y., played all 81 games with the Jets this season. He was acquired by Winnipeg from the Los Angeles Kings in the blockbuster 2023 Pierre-Luc Dubois trade, alongside Gabriel Vilardi and Rasmus Kupari. He recorded 31 points this season, and with one game left, is on a four-game point streak.
