Tobias Enstrom was forced to leave Tuesday's game after being on the receiving end of a hit.
He tried to play a shift afterward but had to exit after coach Claude Noel said, "it just seized up. It's just something that happens when you put stress on muscles." Enstrom's night ended following just six shifts and 5:26 of ice time. He is listed as day-to-day.

Tobias Enstrom scored for a second straight game since returning from injury in Tuesday's win over Carolina.
The offensive-minded defenseman has four goals and 15 points in 15 games this year. Dress him with confidence for the remainder of the lockout-shortened season.

Tobias Enstrom scored what would become the game-winning goal in his return from a shoulder injury Sunday night against Tampa.
His third goal of the 2013 campaign came just prior to the midway point of the second period. Enstrom logged 23:40 of ice time and finished with a plus-2 rating as well after missing the past 19 games. "He was good," coach Claude Noel said of Enstrom's return. "You can see what he can bring ... with his playmaking and his thinking. There was a little bit of rust in there, especially early, but he was good." Get him back in your lineup.

The speculation is true: Winnipeg Jets defenseman Tobias Enstrom will be back in action on Sunday.
He's been sidelined since Feb. 15 with a shoulder injury. It's a shame, too, because he began the 2013 season with 13 points in 13 games and remains one of the NHL's most underrated scoring defensemen when healthy.

"Toby looks like he might be able to turn that corner," Jets head coach Claude Noel said. "So we'll see if we can get him in there." Enstrom hasn't played since Feb. 15. Before the injury, he was off to a fantastic start with two goals and 13 points in 13 games.

Tobias Enstrom (shoulder) wasn't wearing an orange 'no-contact' jersey during Tuesday's game-day practice.
The Jets will see how he his injured shoulder stands up to contact before suggesting a timetable for his return to the lineup. "It feels good being back with the team. Being back with the same guys feels really good," said Enstrom, who has missed the past 17 games. "We haven't set a time and are taking it slow here. We'll see in the next couple of days coming up here. The last couple of days I've been feeling great and skating with the team. It's been a tough couple of weeks here and I'll be happy to be back playing soon."

Tobias Enstrom (shoulder) skated Thursday at practice in a no-contact jersey.
There is still no timetable for his return. "We haven't set a time yet for anything," said Enstrom. "This is my first practice with the team. It's fun to be back with the guys again. I've been skating by myself for a long time. I'll probably practice tomorrow and see how that feels. I'm looking to come back as quick as I can, but I'm going to be careful with it, too." Enstrom hasn't played since Feb. 15.

Tobias Enstrom (shoulder) is about a week away from returning to the lineup, according to coach Claude Noel.
Enstrom hasn't played since Feb. 15 and information about his recovery hasn't exactly been bountiful. Despite playing in roughly half the games of most of his teammates, Enstrom's 13 points are fifth on the team and his six power-play points are tops on the Jets.

The Jets have posted a 5-4 record since Tobias Enstrom exited the lineup due to a shoulder injury.
What is much more alarming is the fact that the team's power play has gone just 1-for-24 over that span. Enstrom still leads Winnipeg with six power-play points. His return to the lineup is unclear though, as he is listed as week-to-week.
