Niederreiter recorded two assists in Sunday's 7-6 win over the Avalanche in Game 1.

EDGE Analysis

Niederreiter has three helpers over his last three games since returning from a leg laceration. The 31-year-old winger endured a 14-game point drought late in the season, and his chances of consistently producing offense from a third-line role are low. He had 34 points, 170 shots on net, 115 hits and a plus-12 rating over 77 appearances in the regular season, his lowest total in a full-length campaign since 2017-18.

Niederreiter (leg) is expected to play Tuesday versus Seattle, John Lu of TSN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Niederreiter is slated to play on the third line and second power-play unit following a five-game absence due to a leg laceration. He has accounted for 18 goals, 33 points, 169 shots on net and 114 hits in 75 contests this campaign.

Niederreiter (leg) might be ready to face the Kraken on Tuesday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Niederreiter was sidelined for the last five contests after suffering a leg laceration but looks set to suit up Tuesday. The 31-year-old winger is mired in a 13-game point drought. If given the green light for Tuesday's game, Niederreiter is likely to play in a middle-six role.

Niederreiter (leg) will miss Saturday's game against Colorado, according to Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site.

EDGE Analysis

It will be Niederreiter's fourth straight game on the shelf. He has 18 goals and 33 points in 75 contests this season. Coach Rick Bowness is hoping Niederreiter will be available Tuesday versus Seattle.

Niederreiter (leg) has no specific timeline for his return but the earliest he could be back is Saturday against Colorado, per Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.

EDGE Analysis

Niederreiter has played in 75 games for the Jets this season, recording 18 goals and 15 assists to go along with 169 shots on goal. The 31-year-old will likely be slotted into the third line when he returns to action.

Niederreiter (leg) will be with the Jets for their three-game road trip, John Lu of TSN reports Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Niederreiter's presence on the trip doesn't guarantee that he will even skate according to head coach Rick Bowness, so his status for Tuesday's matchup with Nashville should be considered doubtful at best. Prior to getting hurt, the 31-year-old winger was mired in a 13-game point drought, so his return to the lineup may not significantly impact fantasy managers.

Niederreiter is expected to miss at least a week because of "a pretty bad gash" on his leg due to an accidental skate cut during Monday's 4-3 win over LA, coach Rick Bowness told John Lu of TSN on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Niederreiter has 18 goals and 33 points in 75 games this season. While he recovers from the leg injury, Tyler Toffoli, who missed Monday's tilt due to an illness, is projected to assume Niederreiter's role on a line with Adam Lowry and Mason Appleton.

Niederreiter needed a few stitches in his leg after Monday's win over the Kings and is questionable for Thursday's matchup against Calgary, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

Niederreiter logged three shots on net in 13:34 of ice time during Monday's 3-2 victory. He's riding a 13-game point drought and has just 33 points through 75 appearances. The team should have an update on his status in the coming days.

Niederreiter logged an assist in Friday's 3-0 win over the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

Niederreiter has turned up the offense in March, posting four goals and one assist during a four-game point streak to open the month. The 31-year-old winger fed Adam Lowry for an insurance marker midway through the third period. Niederreiter is up to 33 points, 144 shots on net, 87 hits, 32 PIM and a plus-14 rating through 62 outings. While the Jets added Tyler Toffoli at the trade deadline, Niederreiter's spot on the third line should be pretty secure -- Alex Iafallo and Mason Appleton are at higher risk of dropping in the lineup.

Niederreiter scored two goals in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Hurricanes.

EDGE Analysis

Both tallies came in the third period, but so did the rest of the Jets' offense as they erased a 3-0 deficit with a stunning road comeback. It's Niederreiter's first multi-goal performance of 2024, with his last coming Dec. 30 against the Wild, and it was a rare flash of production from the 31-year-old winger -- he's made it onto the scoresheet only four times in the last 20 games. On the season, Niederreiter's compiled 16 goals and 30 points in 59 contests.
