Jets winger Nikolaj Ehlers left the ice today on day 2 of training camp but it wasn’t clear to those of us watching why he left early.

After skate we learned from head coach Rick Bowness that the dynamic winger was dealing with neck spasms that started up yesterday. He indicated that Ehlers “tried to get through practice, obviously it didn’t work” and that they will hold him off the ice tomorrow as a precaution.

Said the hope is he will be back on Saturday.

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.
