This just in, according to NHL insider Elliotte Friedman by way of head coach Rick Bowness, Winnipeg Jets forward Kyle Connor is expected to be out of the team's lineup for 6-8 weeks after suffering a knee injury at the hands of Anaheim Ducks forward Ryan Strome.

“Kyle is heading back to Winnipeg. He’ll be re-evaluated by our doctors tonight when he gets in, and we’ll go from there," Bowness told the media after Tuesday morning's skate in San Jose. "But as of now, obviously he’s not playing tonight or tomorrow and we’ll know more tonight when our doctors have a chance to examine him themselves.”
