Dmitry Kulikov is flying to Winnipeg.

The free-agent blue-liner signed a three-year contract with the Winnipeg Jets that carries a $4.33-million annual cap hit, the team announced Saturday.

Kulikov comes to the Jets after spending one season with the Buffalo Sabres. He was dealt to Buffalo last June, but a series of injuries limited him to just 47 games on the campaign, in which he finished with two goals and three assists.

Prior to joining the Sabres, Kulikov spent seven seasons with the Florida Panthers.
