Logan Couture - Skates again WednesdayCouture (lower body) skated for the second straight day Wednesday, Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
ImpactCouture remains without a clear recovery timeline but is at least making some strides. Whenever the veteran center is given the green light, he should immediately retake a spot in the top six as well as link up with the No. 1 power-play unit. With Couture yet to get onto the ice, he almost certainly won't be putting up 67 points again this season but should still be able to reach the 40-point threshold.

Kyle Connor - Expected to miss 6-8 weeksConnor's doctors have confirmed that he'll miss the next 6-8 weeks because of his knee injury, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports Wednesday.
ImpactConnor was already projected to miss 6-8 weeks, but this further reinforces that timetable. The Jets placed Connor on injured reserve earlier Wednesday and called up Dominic Toninato from AHL Manitoba. Connor's contributed 17 goals and 28 points in 26 appearances this year. His extended absence might led to Cole Perfetti assuming a bigger role.

Nico Sturm - Being evaluatedSturm, who suffered what coach David Quinn termed a "mid-body" injury Tuesday, is being evaluated Wednesday, according to Curtis Pashelka of The San Jose Mercury News.
ImpactPashelka believes Sturm is likely to miss some time, but more information should be available Thursday. He has two goals and four points in 26 contests this season. Givani Smith might draw into the lineup Friday versus Arizona if Sturm can't play.
