The Jets are concerned about their defensive depth, with injuries to Dustin Byfuglien, Joe Morrow and now Josh Morrissey. So, Beaulieu will be a decent depth addition for a club with Stanley Cup aspirations.

Buffalo trades for Brandon Montour recently, so Beaulieu became expendable even more than he was before. Beaulieu was a healthy scratch on several occasions this season, so a change of scenery was necessary.

Beaulieu could be a nice fit in Winnipeg, but he will once again be a healthy scratch when everybody returns from injury. Pass on picking him up for fantasy hockey purposes.
