Winnipeg Jets place Bryan Little on injured reserve

Bryan Little continues to recover from a concussion he suffered in the final pre-season game against the Wild.  While he has been making steady progress he remained in a non-contact uniform for yesterday’s practice in Pittsburgh.  With news that the Jets have recalled Sami Niku and Nelson Nogier they’ve placed Little on IR to ensure they are roster compliant.

After playing back-to-back 82 game seasons Little has missed three games to start the season and will miss his fourth tonight when the Jets take on the Penguins.
