Rotowire
Ehlers aggravated his foot injury after getting tangled up with a linesman in Saturday's game versus the Blackhawks, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.
The incident occurred in the second period, limiting Ehlers to 9:01 of ice time. Head coach Scott Arniel said the Jets' coaching staff will check on Ehlers ahead of Sunday's game versus the Oilers, but there was no clear indication if the winger will be available. If he's out, David Gustafsson figures to step back into the lineup. Ehlers previously missed two games earlier in April due to the injury.

Jets' Nikolaj Ehlers: Injury seemingly not serious
Rotowire
Ehlers (lower body) didn't finish Thursday's game versus the Golden Knights, but head coach Scott Arniel didn't seem too concerned about the winger's status in his postgame comments, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Ehlers was struck by a couple of pucks in the contest, and he needed help getting off the ice after friendly fire from Cole Perfetti in the third period, per Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press. The Jets are still trying to hold off the Stars for the top spot in the Central Division, but if there's any issue with Ehlers moving forward, he'll likely be allowed to rest the injury. That leaves his status up in the air for Saturday's game at Utah, but for now, he's likely no worse than questionable.
