The Jets have until 4 pm CT to get their roster compliant. Today we learned that Bryan Little has a concussion and Nathan Beaulieu is out at least four weeks with an upper-body injury and the team acquired Carl Dahlstrom from waivers.

Perhaps the injury to Bryan Little isn’t too significant as he is on the 23 man roster. In order to make room they have put Beaulieu on IR and assigned Sami Niku, who was dealing with a groin injury, to the Moose.

Goalies (2): Laurent Brossoit, Connor Hellebuyck.

Defencemen (7): Anthony Bitetto, Tucker Poolman, Neal Pionk, Dmitry Kulikov, Ville Heinola, Josh Morrissey and Carl Dahlstrom.

Forwards (14): Andrew Copp, Adam Lowry, Mark Letestu, Blake Wheeler, Bryan Little,Nikolaj Ehlers, Jack Roslovic, Patrik Laine, Mark Scheifele, Gabriel Bourque, Kyle Connor, Mason Appleton, Mathieu Perreault and David Gustafsson.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
