Nikita Chibrikov signed a two-year extension with the Winnipeg Jets at an AAV of 875,000, signaling confidence in his development path. He split last season between Winnipeg and the Manitoba Moose, posting 18 points in 30 AHL games before a season-ending injury and notched two goals and an assist in four NHL appearances. He also became the first Jet to score in his first three NHL games.

Drafted 50th overall in 2021, the 22-year-old Russian winger remains a tantalizing depth option with upside if he stays healthy and continues to translate Moose success to the NHL.

In a tightly contested match, the Winnipeg Jets fell to the Vegas Golden Knights 3-2 in overtime, despite leading 2-1 in the third period. Josh Morrissey scored for the Jets, but a late power-play goal by Victor Olofsson tied the game, leading to Ivan Barbashev's overtime winner.

Head coach Scott Arniel noted the team's need to improve their shot attempts, as they struggled offensively after an impressive win against the Boston Bruins. The Jets have now lost eight straight regular-season games to the Golden Knights.
