David Gustafsson In Concussion Protocol

Winnipeg Jets center David Gustafsson is in concussion protocol. The 24-year-old had his first career fight against Boston Bruins forward Trent Frederic in Tuesday's 8-1 win and wasn't able to finish the contest. Gustafsson was in the lineup for only the third time this season. He hasn't scored any points with four shots on goal. Rasmus Kupari will likely replace Gustafsson on the fourth line in Thursday's matchup against Vegas. Kupari's work includes three points (two goals, one assist) in 28 appearances this season.

Mark Scheifele Continues Home Success Against Bruins

Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele added three points to his tally as the team eased past Boston 8-1 on Tuesday. He potted two goals, one on the power play, and tallied one assist. Scheifele's form has been one of the keys to Winnipeg's success this season, and he's been terrific on home ice, scoring at least one point in all 13 outings so far. This marks the longest home point streak by a player in franchise history. If he can keep up his current scoring rate, Scheifele will post his first career 90-point campaign. He's on 16 goals and 34 points through 30 games.

Nikolaj Ehlers Considered Day-To-Day Following Friday's Exit

Winnipeg Jets winger Nikolaj Ehlers (lower body) is considered day-to-day after he was injured in Friday's 4-3 loss to Vegas. The team plans to evaluate him further on Sunday. Ehlers notched an assist on Friday before being forced to exit the contest. He finished with 6:23 of ice time. The Danish forward has so far player in every game during a highly productive season, which has seen Ehlers record nine goals and 25 points in 24 games. Alex Iafallo received an uptick in minutes on Friday following Ehlers' exit and might have a larger role again in Sunday's meeting with Dallas.

Connor Hellebuyck Stops 43 Shots In Win Against Wild

Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck saved 43 of 44 shots in Monday's 4-1 road victory against Minnesota. The Wild had Kirill Kaprizov back in the lineup and ended Hellebuyck's shutout bid early on when Jake Middleton gave the hosts the lead, but the Jets No. 1 went on to make 34 consecutive saves to help his team earn an impressive win. Hellebuyck now shares the all-time record for the fewest games required to reach 15 wins in a season. He's sporting a 15-2-0 record through 17 starts. Among regular starters, Hellebuyck owns the league's best goals-against average with 2.06 and the best save percentage with .929. His impressive form has given the reigning Vezina Trophy winner a chance to finish a second consecutive month with only one loss.

Dylan Samberg Placed On Injured Reserve With Broken Foot

Winnipeg Jets defenseman Dylan Samberg (foot) has been placed on Injured Reserve. He broke his foot in Saturday's 4-1 loss to Nashville and has been ruled out indefinitely. Samberg has chipped in with three goals and three assists in 21 games this season while recording 30 blocks and 24 hits. Ville Heinola (ankle), who has been recalled from a conditioning assignment in the minors, will replace Samberg on the roster. Heinola has been recovering from an ankle infection and hasn't yet played in the NHL this season. He registered one assist in two AHL games during his time with the Manitoba Moose.

Connor Hellebuyck Sharp in Friday's Victory

Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck stopped 17 of the 18 shots he faced en route to defeating the Pittsburgh Penguins on Friday evening. Hellebuyck's lone blemish came in the final frame off a power-play goal by winger Michael Bunting. The Jets dominated play through most of the game, but the 31-year-old netminder was sharp when he was called upon. Since the start of the month, Hellebuyck has carried an impressive 7-1 record with a solid .925 SV% and a 2.13 GAA. He only allowed more than three goals in two of these starts and logged two shutouts in this span. Through 16 games this season, the star netminder sits with a stellar .924 SV% and 2.13 GAA, and a near-perfect 14-2 record. Fantasy managers should continue to view Hellebuyck as an elite goaltender and a top option in DFS formats.

Kyle Connor Tallies Two Points In Friday's Victory

Winnipeg Jets left wing Kyler Connor tallied a goal and an assist during Friday's victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins. Connor tallied the primary assist on Gabriel Vilardi's power-play tally in the second frame. Connor then found the back of the net in the final minutes with an empty-netter to put the game out of reach. The 27-year-old has now tallied at least two points in each of his past two games. This is a great sign, as Connor tallied just three points in his previous six games before this stretch. Overall, the former first-round selection has scored 13 goals and logged 13 helpers across 20 games while tallying 73 shots on goal with a +10 rating. Fantasy managers should continue to view Connor as an elite winger with a high-scoring upside playing top minutes on a competing Winnipeg team.

Mark Scheifele Celebrates Ninth Career Hat Trick

Winnipeg Jets center Mark Scheifele potted his ninth career hat trick in Tuesday's 6-3 victory over Florida. Scheifele tallied two even-strength goals and one power-play goal. This was Scheifele's third multi-goal outing of the campaign. He's been in great form since Game 1, producing 12 goals and 24 points in 19 appearances. Nine of the points have come with the man advantage as Winnipeg's power play has been red-hot, currently working at a 35.7 percent clip. Next up, the team faces a challenging time, as Friday's trip to Pittsburgh starts a six-game road trip for the Jets. All three games in which Scheifele hasn't found the score sheet this season have been on away ice.

Neal Pionk Records Three Assists In Historic Win

Winnipeg Jets defenseman Neal Pionk came away with three assists as the team beat the Rangers 6-3 on Tuesday, becoming the first side in NHL history to win 15 of its first 16 games in a season. Pionk has been an integral part of the success, totaling 17 points (three goals, 14 assists) in 16 games. This puts him tied with teammate Josh Morrissey for the second-most points among all blue-liners. The two have feasted at the back despite skating on different defensive pairings and power-play units. Pionk doesn't shy away from the dirty work either, having registered 28 blocks and 21 hits for the campaign.

Connor Hellebuyck Posts 40th Career Shutout

Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck recorded his 40th career shutout as the team beat Colorado 1-0 on Thursday. Hellebuyck became the sixth American goalie with at least 40 shutouts in league history with a 35-save effort. The Avalanche entered the contest having scored multiple goals in each of their 13 games so far this season. Hellebuyck has looked almost superhuman at times in 2024-25, logging a 10-1-0 record with a league-high three shutouts. He has allowed 1.91 goals while registering a .932 save percentage. Another tough divisional rival awaits Hellebuyck next as the Jets host Dallas on Saturday. Hellebuyck lost all three starts in the matchup last season, allowing eight goals.

Eric Comrie Faces Blue Jackets Friday

Winnipeg Jets goaltender Eric Comrie will guard the crease in Friday's matchup against Columbus. The 29-year-old gets his third start of the campaign. He has previously beaten Pittsburgh and Calgary in high-scoring games, allowing three goals on both occasions. Comrie has saved 65 of 71 shots to register a solid .915 save percentage. The Jets have dropped only one game so far and are expected to cruise past the hosts on Friday. However, the Blue Jackets are riding a bit of momentum with three wins in four games and boast a hot goalie in Elvis Merzlikins, who has allowed only one goal across his last two starts.

Kyle Connor Looks To Match Career-Best Goal Streak On Thursday

Winnipeg Jets left wing Kyle Connor has tallied five goals and one assist in six games during a fruitful start to the season. He has a chance to match a career high by scoring in a fifth consecutive game on Thursday versus Seattle. Connor has formed a dangerous one-two punch with Mark Scheifele on Winnipeg's top line. Scheifele also has five goals already and sits on eight points. The two get a good matchup to do further damage on Thursday, as the Kraken carry a lowly .897 save percentage. Connor boasts seven goals and 12 points in nine career appearances versus Seattle.

He now boasts seven points (one goal, six assists) through five games, sitting tied for second on the defensemen scoring list.

Neal Pionk Has Career Night With Four Points

Pionk closed out a four-goal first period for the Jets with a power-play goal and had two points with the man advantage overall. He was plus-two for the game and registered two shots with one hit in 19:20 of ice time. The 29-year-old now boasts five points (one goal, four assists) in four games for the season, working on the second defensive pairing and the second power-play unit. He offers solid production across all categories and benefits from playing on a hot team that's 4-0-0 to start the season.

Cole Perfetti Picks Up Four Points Versus Sharks

Winnipeg Jets forward Cole Perfetti recorded a career-high four points in Friday's 8-3 victory over San Jose. He tallied two goals and two assists, with half of his points coming on the power play. The 22-year-old led all skaters with a plus-four rating and tied a game-high with five shots. Perfetti entered Friday's contest with zero points and six shots on his name through three games, so this should be a good confidence booster for him. Winnipeg's second line was buzzing all night, combining for 11 points, and they have a chance to keep the momentum going on Sunday versus the Penguins, who allow 4.17 goals per game.

Jaret Anderson-Dolan Recovering From A Broken Foot

Winnipeg Jets center Jaret Anderson-Dolan is recovering from a broken foot. Jets head coach Scott Arniel revealed the news on Tuesday. The 25-year-old was placed on Injured Reserve last week with an undisclosed injury, and now we know the exact nature of the ailment. This also means that Anderson-Dolan won't make his season debut anytime soon. "We're not even close on that one yet," Arniel said regarding Anderson-Dolan. Even when he's ready to return, the Calgary-born forward likely won't play a large role with the Jets. Following stints with the Los Angeles Kings and Nashville Predators, Anderson-Dolan sits on 28 points (15 goals, 13 assists) through 127 career games.

Kyle Connor Gives Jets Another Overtime Victory

Winnipeg Jets left wing Kyle Connor delivered the game-winning goal in Sunday's 2-1 overtime victory against Minnesota. He struck his second goal of the year at the 0:51 mark in the extra frame after Winnipeg had opened overtime with a power play. It took eight shots on goal for Connor to finally light the lamp. The 27-year-old had twice as many shots on Sunday than he had managed in his first two outings of the season. It's been a good start to the year for Connor, who has kicked off the campaign with a three-game point streak. Both of Connor's goals have come in power-play situations, and he boasts one even-strength assist.
