Perreault (upper body) is out indefinitely.

EDGE Analysis

Perreault sustained the injury when he was slashed by Anaheim's Corey Perry in the first period of Monday's game against the Ducks, and evidently could be looking at a long-term absence. The Jets currently only have 12 healthy forwards on their roster, so they'll likely need to promote someone from the minors to round out their depth up front during Perreault's absence.

Perreault posted a pair of power-play assists in Saturday's 3-2 loss against the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

It was Perreault's first multi-point effort of the season. While his overall numbers are poor, he has picked up the pace since mid-December. He has three goals and 10 points over his past 15 games. Perreault is a decent No. 4 or 5 winger in fantasy pools of 12 or more teams.

Perreault kicked off the scoring in Sunday's 3-2 defeat to the Oilers.

EDGE Analysis

Perreault put himself in front of the cage in order to bang home a rebound for just his second goal of the season. Sunday's marker was the winger's first point since returning from injury and ended a 14-game pointless streak dating back to before his was sidelined. This could be what the 28-year-old needs to jump start his year, but at this point, it seems doubtful he will be able to register a fourth consecutive 40+ point campaign.

Perreault (undisclosed) will suit up against the Oilers on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Perreault makes his long awaited return after missing the last 14 games due to injury. Before picking up this knock, the winger was off to a slow start, as he garnered a mere three points in the opening 11 matchups. The 28-year-old will need to shake the rust off quickly if he is going to register a fourth consecutive 40+ point season.

According to coach Paul Maurice, Perreault (undisclosed) may be eligible to return Saturday or Sunday , Ted Wyman of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

This news effectively rules Perrault out for the Jets' next two contests, but should still be considered good news for fantasy owners as his extended absence -- 13 games so far -- appears to be coming to a close. Through the first 11 games of the year, the center managed just three points despite averaging over 16 minutes of ice time per night. Once healthy enough to return, the 28-year-old will likely assume a third or fourth line role, given Winnipeg's depth down the middle. Look for an update from the team as soon as he is given the green light.

Perreault (undisclosed) joined the team at practice in a non-contact jersey Monday, Ted Wyman of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Considering Perreault is still limited at practice, it seems unlikely he will be cleared in time for Tuesday's matchup with the Devils. Additionally, the center remains on injured reserve and would need to be activated in order to return. Prior to getting hurt, the 28-year-old has registered three points in 11 games, but was a minus-5 and managed just one helper on the power play. Even if you have stashed Perreault this long, you may want to consider dumping him as he will likely need to shake off some rust and remains without a clear timeline to suit back up. Look for an update from the team once he is taken off IR.

Perreault (undisclosed) will join the team on their upcoming five-game road trip, but remains without a clear timeline to return, Ted Wyman of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Perreault will not be available for Tuesday's matchup with Chicago, although fantasy owners can take solace after coach Paul Maurice described the center as part of the "short-term group" according to Ted Wyman. Perreault remains on injured reserve, so look for an update on his status prior to returning to the lineup.

Perreault (undisclosed) is listed on injured reserve, per the NHL's official media site.

EDGE Analysis

Perreault has missed the past five games, but unless he ultimately moves to long-term IR, the pivot will be eligible to return once healthy. The Jets have been ravaged by injuries up front, so a call-up could be near for a team that has still managed to go 5-3-2 over the past 10 games.

Perreault (undisclosed) status remain unchanged, ruling him out Tuesday against Dallas, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Perreault will miss his third consecutive game Tuesday as the Jets continue to be hammered by injuries. Prior to the injury, the 28-year-old was struggling to contribute as he managed a paltry three points in 11 contests along with being a minus-5. Once the center is cleared, he figures to resume his spot on Winnipeg's second line and will likely push Alex Burmistrov into a healthy scratch role.

Perreault (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Sunday but could return Tuesday against Dallas, Ted Wyman of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Perreault was first ruled out of Friday's game due to an undisclosed injury and the 28-year-old forward will require at least one more game of rest before potentially returning Tuesday. He's gotten off to a slow start early in the season, but his presence on the power play and three straight 40-point seasons should keep him in fantasy consideration in deeper season-long leagues and in daily fantasy.
