Jets re-sign Dano to 1-year deal

The Winnipeg Jets have agreed to terms on a one-year, $800,000 deal with forward Marko Dano, the team announced Tuesday.

In signing Dano, the Jets avoid an arbitration date that was set for July 30. Winnipeg now has five restricted free agents left to re-sign, including defenseman Josh Morrissey.

A frequent healthy scratch last season, Dano was limited to just 23 appearances, in which he picked up three points.

Dano was originally acquired in the 2016 trade that sent former Jets captain Andrew Ladd to the Chicago Blackhawks.
