Thorburn potted his fourth goal of the season in Wednesday's win over the Blue Jackets. Thorburn now has goals in two of his last three games and is shooting 12.9 percent for the season, the second-best rate of his career. This would be good news for just about any player other than Thorburn, who has attempted just 0.65 shots per game, muting his offensive impact. The bottom-six forward has only five points in 47 games.

Thorburn scored his second goal of the season in Tuesday's victory over the Sabres. As his two points in 31 games would suggest, Thorburn isn't someone the Jets are looking to for offense most nights. Instead, he'll carry most of his value as a grinder on the checking line and a leader in the locker room.

Forward Chris Thorburn has agreed to re-sign with the Winnipeg Jets for three years at an average annual value of $1.2 million. Thorburn is far from a central cog in the Jets game plan, but he's a useful player nonetheless and is signed on reasonable terms. He has no fantasy value.

The Winnipeg Jets updated that Chris Thorburn is out indefinitely with a broken talus (foot). His main contributions fantasy-wise come in PIM (65) and hits (108), but those factors are enough to make him worth a roster spot, so JFYI. His teammate Jim Slater is day-to-day with a lower-body injury, too.

Chris Thorburn potted the game-winning goal with only 1:03 remaining in the third period to propel Winnipeg to a 2-1 win over Carolina on Tuesday. "It feels great, man, just to chip in," said Thorburn. I'm not a guy that is depended upon to score goals but at the same time I still feel confident to be able to do that when I get the opportunity. I've been given a great opportunity right now and I'm playing with two great players who are helping me out and helping along the way." He's getting a chance to play alongside Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler, while Evander Kane is injured. Thorburn has produced two goals and one assist in his last four games.
