Add the Winnipeg Jets to the list of teams reportedly pursuing Karl Alzner.
The Central Division club and the Montreal Canadiens are both showing strong interest in the pending unrestricted free-agent defenseman, according to TSN's Darren Dreger.
Alzner was planning to meet with several teams - including the Canadiens - this week, as TSN's Pierre LeBrun reported Monday, and a source told the Chicago Tribune's Chris Kuc that the Blackhawks reached out to the blue-liner as well.
He's spent his entire nine-year career with the Washington Capitals, and hasn't missed a single regular-season game in the last seven campaigns.
