Winnipeg Jets winger Nikolaj Ehlers scored the team's only goal in Tuesday's 3-1 loss to the Dallas Stars. The Danish forward led all skaters with five shots on goal and managed to get one puck past Jake Oettinger early in the second period, just 62 seconds in. After his postseason debut was delayed by injury, Ehlers has steadily begun to build momentum, averaging a point per game in the series against the Stars. However, he has had two scoreless outings in the matchup. Overall, Ehlers has notched three goals and five points in six postseason games, firing away 25 shots on goal. He remains a vital part of the Jets' offense, working on the second line and the first power-play unit.

Winnipeg Jets winger Nikolaj Ehlers (foot) is set to re-enter the lineup for Game 6 against the St. Louis Blues on Friday night. He has been out for seven games due to a foot injury. Ehlers' return comes at a great time for the Jets, who will be without Mark Scheifele (undisclosed) on Friday. He will take up a spot on the second line next to Cole Perfetti and Adam Lowry. The Danish forward has previously struggled to perform in the postseason, notching only 14 points (four goals, 10 assists) in 37 career playoff appearances. However, Ehlers matched his career high with 39 assists and ended the regular season with 63 points in 69 games.

Winnipeg Jets winger Nikolaj Ehlers (foot) will not travel with the team to face the St. Louis Blues in back-to-back road games. The two teams will meet in St. Louis on Thursday and Sunday, with the Jets holding a 2-0 lead in the first-round series. The team has coped well with the loss of Ehlers, but the Jets would definitely be stronger with him in the lineup. Due to Ehlers' absence, Nino Niederreiter has landed a second-line role for the start of the postseason. However, the Swiss veteran has been quiet so far, recording two shots on goal with one hit and zero points in two games.
