Winnipeg Jets head coach Rick Bowness indicates Nikolaj Ehlers not cleared to play in game 4

One of the big question marks heading into game 4 was the status of Nikolaj Ehlers and if he would play. As per Scott Billeck of the Winnipeg Sun the dynamic winger did not skate with the Jets during morning skate.

During the media availability with head coach Rick Bowness he was asked about Ehlers and if he could

“Nik will not play tonight. He has not been cleared. It’s why we kept him off the ice today”.

Tough news for the Jets.
