Nate Schmidt News
Winnipeg Jets defenseman Nate Schmidt will be drafted back into the lineup for Saturday's home game against Edmonton. He was a healthy scratch for the previous match versus Vegas. Logan Stanley is expected to come out of the lineup. Schmidt is a blue-liner who can contribute at both ends of the ice, but he had a down year offensively last term, and the 2023-24 campaign hasn't started well for him either, with Schmidt going pointless in three games while logging a minus-three rating. He's set to skate with Dylan Samberg on the third defensive pairing on Saturday and should also see time with the second power-play unit.
Winnipeg Jets defenseman Nate Schmidt is recovering from a lower-body injury and is considered day-to-day. Schmidt played in Winnipeg's first preseason game last Sunday but is currently unavailable. However, his injury doesn't appear to be serious and the 32-year-old isn't in danger of missing the start of the regular season. Schmidt is kicking off his third year in Winnipeg. He's been an impactful player at both ends of the ice for the Jets, totaling 51 points (11 goals, 40 assists) in 148 games with 502 shots on goal and 189 blocks. Last season, Schmidt led the team with a plus-15 rating despite having a down year offensively and notching only 19 points (seven goals, 12 assists) in 71 games.
Winnipeg Jets defenseman Nate Schmidt (upper body) will return from a nine-game absence Friday against the Lightning. He was a game-time decision earlier in the week for a meeting with Calgary and wasn't quite ready yet to play then, but head coach Rick Bowness has confirmed that Schmidt will be back on Friday. The 31-year-old will join the third defensive pairing and the second power-play unit. In 29 games this season, Schmidt has registered six points, 37 shots, 19 hits and 40 blocks with a plus-six rating.
Winnipeg Jets defenseman Nate Schmidt entered the concussion protocol after exiting Thursday's game against Nashville. He logged just 5:30 of action and was unable to continue after taking a big hit from Tanner Jeannot near the end of the first period. Schmidt had one hit of his own as well in the game before getting injured. The well-traveled blue-liner is having a fine season for Winnipeg with six points, 37 shots and 40 blocks registered in 29 games with a plus-six rating. His absence is set to open a spot on the second power-play unit.
