Winnipeg Jets Cole Perfetti injured in game vs Bruins (won’t play vs Capitals)

Associate coach Scott Arniel spoke ahead of the game against the Capitals and Jeff Hamilton of the Winnipeg Free Press is reporting that he indicated that:

“Cole Perfetti injured himself late in last night’s game against the Bruins and will be further evaluated in Winnipeg.”

Tough news for the Jets who already have a laundry list of injured players and for Cole Perfetti who is having himself a very good rookie campaign and is in the Calder discussion. He has six goals and 14 assists for 20 points in 33 games for Winnipeg.

Update:

I just re-watched the end of the game and it would appear that he sustained the injury on this play:

We likely won’t get an update until the 27th when the team returns from Christmas holidays.

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.
