Perreault (upper body) was medically cleared ahead of Thursday's Game 4 against Nashville, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Prior to the confirmation, things were already looking up because Perreault was a full participant during Wednesday's practice. The veteran winger has only suited up for one postseason game due to the injury, but should make his way into Thursday's lineup.

Perreault (upper body) skated in a regular sweater at practice Wednesday, Frank Seravalli of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Perreault has missed the Jets' previous seven contests due to his upper-body injury. Coach Paul Maurice left the door open to a possible return for Game 4, which would provide a boost to Winnipeg's power play. During the regular season, the center notched six goals and eight helpers with the man advantage while logging 2:15 of ice time.

Perreault (upper body) was still sporting a non-contact sweater at Tuesday's game-day skate -- ruling him out for the Jets' Game 3 matchup with Nashville, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Perreault will miss his seventh straight outing due to his upper-body issue, but the fact that he is joining his teammates on the ice -- albeit in a non-contact jersey -- bodes well for his eventual return to the lineup. The Quebec native tallied 17 goals and 22 helpers in his 70 regular-season contest and figures to take on a bottom-six role once given the green light. In the meantime, Matt Hendricks is slated to continue deputizing in Perreault's stead.

Perreault (upper body) didn't participate in pregame line rushes and won't play in Sunday's Game 2 against Nashville, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Once again Perreault donned the non-contact jersey in the morning skate, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun further reports, evidencing that his recovery is staying on track but he's just not quite ready to draw back into the lineup. The 30-year-old was originally injured during Winnipeg's first game of the postseason against Minnesota, and his next opportunity to return will be for Game 3 on Tuesday against Nashville.

Perreault (upper body) hit the ice Friday wearing a non-contact jersey, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Given Perreault has yet to be cleared for contact, it's safe to assume he won't be in the lineup against the Predators for Friday's Game 1 clash. The natural center will miss his fifth consecutive outing due to hsi upper-body issue. In the meantime, Jack Roslovic figures to continue to deputise in Perreault's absence.

Perreault (upper body) has not yet resumed skating, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

It certainly doesn't bode well for fantasy owners that Perreault has not been able to get back on the ice. It's hard to imagine the natural center will be available for Game 1 against Nashville at this point. Until the Quebec native is given the green light, Jack Roslovic figures to continue filling out a bottom-six role.

Perreault (upper body) will not play in Friday's Game 5 against the Wild, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Perreault has not played since suffering the upper-body injury in Game 1 and he will continue to rest with the Jets holding a 3-1 series lead entering Friday's contest. It's possible he will return later in the series if it continues to extend, or he may continue to sit until the second round to ensure he's healthy the rest of the way if they advance. For now, it's best to consider him questionable on a game-by-game basis.

Perreault (upper body) was absent from Tuesday's game-day skate and is doubtful to suit up for Game 4 versus the Wild, per Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun.

EDGE Analysis

Despite a bottom-six role, Perreault has consistently logged power-play minutes for the Jets this season (2:15 of ice time per game). Of the Quebec native's 39 points, 14 have come with the man advantage. Youngster Jack Roslovic should get a look with the second unit during Perreault's absence.

Perreault (upper body) wasn't cleared to play in Sunday's Game 3 tilt against Minnesota.

EDGE Analysis

The injury from Game 1 is still bugging Perreault, and although he skated in the last 65 contests of 2017-18, he'll take a seat for the second straight playoff game. In the regular season the 30-year-old lit the lamp in each game against Minnesota -- and although two games is a small sample size, he'll look to carry his streak over into the postseason when he does return, and also seek to collect his first playoff goal as a member of Winnipeg.

Perreault (upper body) wasn't on the ice for warmups and won't play Friday against the Wild, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Perreault suffered this injury in the second period of Game 1 on Wednesday, recording just 6:52 of ice time. He was a game-time call for Friday's game, which signals it may not be a long-term problem. For the time being, Jack Roslovic will enter the lineup.
