WINNIPEG JETS NEWS

Nino Niederreiter - Making trip with team Niederreiter (leg) will be with the Jets for their three-game road trip, John Lu of TSN reports Monday.

Impact Niederreiter presence on the trip doesn't guarantee that he will even skate according to coach Rick Bowness, so his status for Tuesday's matchup with Nashville should be considered doubtful at best. Prior to getting hurt, the 31-year-old winger was mired in a 13-game pointless streak, so his return to the lineup may not significantly impact fantasy players.

Colby Barlow - Assigned to AHL Barlow was assigned to AHL Manitoba on Sunday.

Impact Barlow, the 18th overall pick in 2023, tallied 40 goals and 58 points in 50 games with the Owen Sound Attack in the OHL this season. The 19-year-old winger offers an intriguing blend of physicality and scoring upside. He'll likely finish the year with AHL Manitoba, though he could push for a spot in the lineup with the Jets next season.

Connor Hellebuyck - Class of his own Hellebuyck made 25 saves in a 4-2 win over Minnesota on Saturday.

Impact Kirill Kaprizov beat him twice, but that was it. Hellebuyck is the heart of the Jets and in a class of his own in the NHL. His 2.41 GAA is third-best and .920 save percentage second-best among qualified netminders this season. And with the postseason approaching, Hellebuyck is poised to pass Georges Vezina as the only goalie in NHL history to claim each of his franchise's first 18+ playoff wins. In fact, he's one of just four goalies in NHL history with all of a franchise's (Jets/Thrashers) postseason victories.

Alex Iafallo - Two-point night in win Iafallo had a goal and an assist in a 4-2 win over the Wild on Saturday.

Impact Iafallo's second-period goal stood as the game winner. He deflected Brenden Dillon's shot that got through traffic. Iaffalo snapped an eight-game point and 11-game goal drought with the performance. He has a modest 11 goals and 26 points in 77 games, which is decent enough for a fourth-line player. But Iafallo has just five shots in his last 10 games, and that means he can't compete in most fantasy formats.

Vladislav Namestnikov - Big three-point effort Namestnikov had a goal and two assists in a 4-2 win over the Wild on Saturday.

Impact He opened the scoring early in the first after Alex Iaffalo grabbed a turnover behind the Wild net and fed Namestnikov, who was alone in tight on Marc Andre Fleury. It was his first three-point game since Jan. 2 when he picked three apples against the Lightning. Namestnikov is seven points from his career mark of 44 set in 2017-18 in Tampa Bay. With five games remaining, he may be hard-pressed to set a new career mark.
