Per a report from NHL analyst Darren Dreger, the Winnipeg Jets could soon be moving on from defenseman Logan Stanley with the deadline approaching.
Even though the Winnipeg Jets have managed to stave off some of the bleeding, they're still nowhere near a postseason spot, which would be quite the letdown from last year when the won the President's Trophy as the NHL's best team and advanced to Game 6 of the WCSF against the divisional foe Dallas Stars.
There have been multiple Jets players who have been involved in trade rumours as it becomes more clear that they will not return to the playoffs, including veteran defenseman Luke Schenn and forward Jonathan Toews.
Another potential trade piece that's been discussed is Logan Stanley, who happens to be a pending UFA at the end of the year, making him a natural candidate to be moved.
Per a report from NHL analyst Darren Dreger, there hasn't been any contract extension dialogue between Stanley and the Jets.
Darren Dreger: Re Jets/Logan Stanley: He's an UFA; there has been no contract extension dialogue; so he could be a piece that betters their position in the draft, but it's too early - Insider Trading (1/27)
So far this year, Stanley has 17 points (8G, 9A) in 53 games.

Stanley was taken by the Jets with the 18th overall pick in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft, and he's played his entire career in a Jets sweater after having played in the minors for the Windsor Spitfires and Kitchener Rangers of the OHL.
He'd start his professional career with the American Hockey League affiliate Manitoba Moose before eventually making his NHL debut with the Jets in 2020-21.
He has 53 points (13G, 40A) in 255 career NHL games.
