Luca Sbisa has been placed on waivers by the Winnipeg Jets

Luca Sbisa signed a contract extension with the Winnipeg Jets in September. As he has now been placed on waivers, as Chris Johnston (Sportsnet) reports, he will likely not suit up for the Jets at the start of the season.

There is, however, still the option of the "taxi squad": each NHL team gets to keep four to six players after they clear waivers. Those players get a chance to play if a player cannot play due to the Covid-19 protocol.

.In 44 games for the NHL team last season, he recorded two goals and eight assists.
