Trouba saw a significant uptick in power-play ice time (2:23) Monday against Vancouver.

EDGE Analysis

With Dustin Byfuglien (lower body) considered week-to-week, Trouba figures to take on a bigger role on the power play. Fantasy owners no doubt will be hoping that the blueliner's additional opportunities with the man advantage will translate into goals and end his seven-game drought. If the 23-year-old fails to step up, Tyler Myers could also be tasked with the responsibility of replacing Byfuglien.

Trouba has notched assists in three straight outings.

EDGE Analysis

While Trouba may still be looking for his first goal of the campaign, he is quietly compiling helpers -- including his current three-game point streak. The Michigan native continues to log big minutes for the Jets (22:18 per game), including 2:11 on the power play. Unfortunately for fantasy owners, the 2012 first-round pick hasn't capitalize on his opportunities with the man advantage as just one of his points has been recorded with the extra attacker.

Trouba snagged the secondary assist on the Jets' opening goal against the Canucks on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Trouba has tallied an assist in each of his previous two outings while averaging 24:38 of ice time -- a significant increase in minutes likely due to the absence of Dustin Byfuglien (lower body) from the lineup. The 23-year-old Trouba cracked the 30-point mark for the first time last season and is already on pace to do so again in 2017-18.

Trouba led all US defensemen with three points at the 2017 IIHF World Championship.

EDGE Analysis

In addition to tallying a goal and two helpers, Trouba registered a plus-5 rating, two PIM, and 16 shots in eight outings at Worlds. After holding out at the start of last season, the blueliner's future in Winnipeg is murky once again with the Vegas expansion draft looming. If the Jets are unable to figure out a way to protect the 23-year-old, he could find himself suiting up in the desert for the 2017-18 campaign.

Trouba found twine on a pair of power plays in Thursday's 5-4 victory over the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

He's marked the scoresheet with six points in his last five games, as Trouba's been just one of many Jets players getting hot at the wrong time (with the team out of playoff contention). Despite his team's struggles, it's been a successful -- if injury-shortened -- campaign for the 23-year-old blueliner, who has a career-high 33 points in 59 games. If he can stay healthy next year, he'll have a strong chance of clearing 40 points as he continues growing into a workhorse on the Winnipeg blue line.

Trouba racked up two assists and was a plus-3 in 24:46 of ice time in Saturday's win over Ottawa.

EDGE Analysis

Trouba has been playing very well of late, riding a three-game point streak and racking up seven points since the beginning of March. He's only played 57 games this season, but this year marks his first ever 30-plus point campaign. Trouba is being relied on heavily by Winnipeg, so even though they are out of the playoff race, he makes for a solid fantasy play in most formats due to his increased point production and physical nature.

Trouba (upper body) will play Friday's road game against the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

With several Winnipeg defensemen ailing at the moment, Trouba chose a convenient time to return to health after a six-game absence. The American blueliner recorded points in three of his last five games before getting injured, so he could be a good candidate to return to the scoresheet assuming no rust.

Trouba (upper body) will miss Thursday's matchup with Los Angeles but may be available Friday against Anaheim, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Trouba will miss his fifth straight outings due to the upper-body ailment and is just one of four Jets' blueliners out of the lineup. Although Winnipeg have not been mathematically eliminated from postseason contention, they would need to be near perfect in their final nine games, which would be difficult even with their full complement of defenseman. When healthy, the 23-year-old is averaging just under 25 minutes per game, including 1:40 on the power play, which should provide him some scoring opportunities once cleared to play.

Trouba (upper body) will miss another week with his injury, Ted Wyman of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

If that extended timetable holds true, it'll mean four more games missed for the talented young defenseman. Trouba's already been out for three contests due to the injury, and the Jets allowed 10 goals in his absence over that stretch. A trip to IR is entirely possible.

Trouba (upper body) has been ruled out of Thursday's matchup with the Islanders, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 23-year-old's status has been downgraded twice in the last two days, having initially been deemed questionable Wednesday. With Trouba and his near 25 minutes of time-on-ice per game out of the lineup, expect Dustin Byfuglien to play an increased role.
