Wheeler (knee) was activated off injured reserve Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Wheeler could make his first appearance in nine games as soon as Saturday's contest against Boston. The 35-year-old is a major piece of the Jets offense. He has averaged 19:24 of ice time -- 3:23 during the power play -- and contributed 17 points over 22 appearances this season. Adam Lowry is likely to see a reduction in even-strength minutes upon Wheeler's return.
