why?
The Winnipeg Jets placed defenceman Niku on unconditional waivers Monday for contract termination.
Niku, a seventh-round pick of the Jets in 2015, did not have a point in six games last season. He has one year remaining on his current contract at a cap hit of $725,000.

Rumours around Manitoba are that he wants to go overseas to play. So Winnipeg is terminating his contract to allow him to do that.
