Vesalainen was recalled by the Jets on Friday, Sara Orlesky of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Vesalainen was considering heading back to Europe to play in the KHL since he has an out clause in his NHL contract, but the Jets hope a call up will entice the 19-year-old to stay. A first-round pick in 2017, Vesalainen has three goals and eight points with AHL Manitoba this year. His next chance to play with the Jets could be Friday against the Sabres, and it appears he'll join the team for their upcoming road trip starting Monday in Vancouver.
