Trouba (upper body) is considered doubtful for Thursday's away tilt with the Islanders, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 2012 first-round pick took to the ice for Thursday's morning skate, but only participated in the informal part of the session. Trouba has 27 points in 52 games this year while posting a plus-7 rating and logging a massive 24:49 of time on ice per game, so his absence will surely be felt by the Jets. Expect the team to issue one last update on Trouba's status prior to puck drop.

Trouba (upper body) remains questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Islanders, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Trouba, who missed Monday's outings, needs just two more points to tie his career high 29 point which he reached during his rookie campaign. When healthy, the blueliner trails only Dustin Byfuglien for the team lead in ice time -- 24:49 per game -- which includes minutes logged on both the power play and penalty kill. While his offensive production limits his fantasy value, his immeasurable contributions will certainly be felt indirectly if he is unavailable.

Trouba will miss Monday's contest in Nashville with an upper-body injury, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
The blueliner has done well since serving a suspension in late February, notching three points in his last five games. The injury will be a setback, but he'll have a chance to return Tuesday in New Jersey.

Trouba was handed a two-game suspension for his hit on the Senators' Michael Stone on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Trouba's check to the head of Stone caused him to leave the game, leaving the forward's status in question moving forward. The defenseman will sit out the team's last game before its bye week Tuesday and the first game out of the break, dating his return March 3 against the Blues. Julian Melchiori seems the likely candidate to take his place in the defensive pairings, His absence will also force the team to shuffle its man advantage again for a couple games.

Trouba will have a hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety on Monday for his check to the head on Ottawa's Mark Stone on Sunday, Steve Lloyd of TSN reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear at this point whether the hearing will occur over the phone or in person, but regardless, Trouba is looking at a potential suspension for his transgression -- which occurred just past the six-minute mark of the third period Sunday. The Jets play again Tuesday, and owners will likely find out late Monday afternoon as to whether Trouba will be available for that contest in Toronto.

Trouba scored and recorded five shots in a 4-1 loss against the Jets on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The 22-year-old has a chance to beat his previous career bests in goals and assists this season, which he set back during his rookie year in 2013-14. Trouba has been particularly hot lately, posting three goals and 10 points in the last 11 contests. Overall, he has five goals and 24 points in 43 games.

Trouba dished out two helpers and attempted six shots on goal in Thursday's 5-3 win over Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
Trouba's six shots tied with Patrik Laine for the team lead, while his plus-2 rating pushed him back up to even for the season. The 22-year-old defenseman has flashed some serious offensive upside with six points in his past five games, and is already just two assists short of his 2013-14 career high.

Trouba (undisclosed) is on the ice for pregame warmups and is expected to play in Wednesday's home contest with the Canadiens, Ken Wiebe of winnipegsun.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Trouba missed morning skate but took pregame line rushes with Toby Enstrom on the Jets second defensive pairing and figures to be a full participant in Wednesday's game. The 22-year-old defenseman has tallied seven points (1 goal, 6 assists) over his last seven outings but will have no easy task finding twine against a Habs' defense that allows 2.34 goals per game, fifth in the NHL.

Trouba was absent for morning skate Wednesday due to possible "maintenance," and that makes him a game-time call for the evening's home tilt against the Canadiens, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
For what it's worth, Jets coach Paul Maurice told reporters that he expects Trouba to play. Here's a guy who was at odds with the Jets as a restricted free agent, holding out on his contract before inking a two-year, $6 million deal and finally returning to the ice Nov. 11. While Trouba was held off the scoresheet in his last pair of games, he blew up for seven points (one goal, six assists) in five games prior -- in addition to 12 blocked shots -- so given the recent productivity, it'll be important to check back on his status closer to warmups.

Trouba collected an assist and registered a team-high six shots on net during Wednesday's game against Florida.
EDGE Analysis
Trouba also logged 25:14 of ice, which was the second-highest total on the team, and his assist extended his point streak to five games. After holding out and missing approximately the first month and a half of the year, the 22-year-old defenseman is rounding into form and producing quality fantasy numbers. Through his past 18 games, Trouba has two goals, 13 points, 41 shots, 34 blocked shots, 14 PIM and 26 hits with a plus-6 rating. His cross-category profile is difficult to come across, and Trouba is worth owning in all leagues at this stage of the game.
