Winnipeg Jets Nikolaj Ehlers skating in regular uniform

Head coach Scott Arniel teased on Thursday saying “we’ll see what colour jersey he’s wearing” when asked about Nikolaj Ehlers.

He had been skating in yellow, non-contact but as per Jets radio colour analyst Mitchell Clinton he is in a regular jersey today at morning skate in St. Louis.

And based on the line rushes provided by Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press it looks like he’s gonna make a return to the lineup for game 6 alongside Adam Lowry and Cole Perfetti.

That’s a pretty massive addition.

You can join us after the game on the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show where we will discuss this and all things game 6.

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.
