The Winnipeg Jets are among the teams interested in defenseman Ian Cole, reports TSN's Darren Dreger.
Cole was sent to the Ottawa Senators as part of the package that landed the Pittsburgh Penguins center Derick Brassard, but his new club reportedly plans to flip him to another team.
Belief is that the Jackets have also showed some interest in Ian Cole, a player GM Jarmo Kekalainen help draft during his days in St. Louis. But I wonder if trying to trade Cole depends on what happens with Jack Johnson first...

The 29-year-old blue-liner has 13 points in 47 games this season, and played a key role in helping the Penguins to back-to-back Stanley Cups.
