Winnipeg Jets

Alex Iafallo was able to find the back of the net for the Jets Saturday night, scoring one goal in a 4-3 loss to the Maple Leafs.

Fantasy Impact: Iafallo has caught fire in the offensive zone, notching points in five of his last six games (two goals, three assists) for the Jets. The 32-year-old remains one of the more underperforming offensive options in the Winnipeg lineup, recording 19 points (nine goals, 10 assists) in 47 games so far this season.

Kyle Connor was able to light the lamp for the Jets Saturday night, scoring one goal in a 4-3 loss to the Maple Leafs.

Fantasy Impact: Connor continues a scorching stretch in the offensive zone, posting points in eight of his last nine games (five goals, six assists) for the Jets. The winger continues to reward fantasy managers with an explosive offensive option in the Winnipeg lineup for fantasy managers, carrying a 1.19 point per game average (23 goals, 33 assists) in 47 games so far this season.

Gabriel Vilardi tallied one assist in the Jets' 4-3 loss to the Maple Leafs Saturday night.

Fantasy Impact: Vilardi continues an impactful stretch in the offensive zone, notching points in seven of his last nine games (three goals, eight assists) for the Jets. The 26-year-old remains one of the more reliable offensive options in the Winnipeg lineup, posting 44 points (19 goals, 25 assists) in 47 games so far this season.

Josh Morrissey posted two points for the Jets Thursday night, scoring one goal and picking up one assist in a 6-2 win over the Wild.

Fantasy Impact: Morrissey continues a dynamic stretch in the offensive zone, recording points in seven of his last eight games (three goals, six assists) for the Jets. The 30-year-old continues to offer fantasy managers an impactful offensive option from the Winnipeg blueline, posting 39 points (nine goals, 30 assists) in 46 games so far this season.

Mark Scheifele tallied four points for the Jets Thursday night, scoring one goal and adding three assists in a 6-2 win over the Wild.

Fantasy Impact: Scheifele has caught fire in the offensive zone, picking up multiple points in four of his last five games (three goals, seven assists) for the Jets. The 32-year-old continues to offer fantasy managers one of the few reliable offensive options in the Winnipeg lineup, posting a 1.26 point per game average (23 goals, 35 assists) in 46 games so far this season.

Connor Hellebuyck (knee) has been activated from injured reserve.

Fantasy Impact: Hellebuyck is poised to return to the crease for a Winnipeg squad that has struggled in the netminder’s absence over the last few weeks. Hellebuyck posted a 2.51 GAA and .913 save percentage in 14 appearances (8-6-0) in goal for the Jets prior to the knee injury.

Jonathan Toews scored his first goal since the 2022-23 season in Monday's 2-1 win over the Flames. His power-play tally early in the third period served as the game-tying goal for Winnipeg.

Fantasy Impact: Toews, who returned to the NHL this season after a two-year absence, is starting to heat up offensively with four points (1G, 3A) over his last four contests. He is seeing regular time on the second power-play unit, where three of his four points have come. While his days as a top fantasy center are behind him, his role on the man advantage provides some value in deeper leagues.

Eric Comrie made 33 saves on 35 shots in Monday's 5-2 victory over the Islanders. After a clean first period, Comrie allowed two goals in the second frame but was able to cruise to his first win of the season thanks to a comfortable lead.

Fantasy Impact: Comrie serves as the clear backup to reigning Hart and Vezina Trophy winner Connor Hellebuyck. While his starting opportunities will be limited, the 30-year-old is a strong streaming option in all fantasy formats whenever he gets the nod. He will likely see action primarily in back-to-back situations.

Logan Stanley recorded a goal and an assist in Monday's 5-2 victory over the Islanders. He also contributed three hits, a blocked shot, and two PIM. The multi-point effort marked the defenseman's first points of the 2025-26 season.

Fantasy Impact: Stanley is currently skating on the second pairing alongside Neal Pionk while filling in for the injured Haydn Fleury. His ice time has steadily increased through the first three games, which is an encouraging sign. While his elevated role may be temporary, Stanley's ability to contribute in peripheral categories gives him some sneaky value in deeper fantasy leagues, particularly those that count hits.

Nino Niederreiter recorded his first points of the season in Monday's 5-2 win over the Islanders. He scored a power-play goal in the first period and later added an assist on a Tanner Pearson tally. Niederreiter finished the contest with three shots on net.

Fantasy Impact: The 33-year-old winger has been a consistent producer, finishing with between 34 and 44 points in each of the last four seasons. He is known for scoring in bunches, which makes him a somewhat streaky fantasy asset but a reliable depth forward in most deeper leagues.

Morgan Barron recorded a goal and an assist in Monday's 5-2 victory over the Islanders. He opened the scoring for the Jets in the first period and later added a secondary helper on a Logan Stanley goal. Barron finished the game with two hits.

Fantasy Impact: Barron is off to an excellent start, with four points (2G, 2A) through three games. He is currently filling in as the fourth-line center for the injured Adam Lowry, who is expected to return in late October. While Barron's production will likely dip once Lowry is back in the lineup, his strong play has put him on the radar in deeper fantasy formats. He's a name to monitor, but managers should be aware that his current role is temporary.

Tanner Pearson registered his first points with Winnipeg in Monday's 5-2 victory over the Islanders, picking up a goal and an assist. The veteran forward recorded both points during the second period.

Fantasy Impact: The 33-year-old is coming off a 27-point campaign with Vegas last season and is currently skating on the Jets' fourth line. Despite the multi-point effort, Pearson's limited role and fluctuating ice time make him a non-factor in most fantasy formats for the time being. He can be left on the waiver wire.

Nikolaj Ehlers posted one assist in the Jets' 2-1 win over the Rangers Tuesday night.

Fantasy Impact: Ehlers continues a dynamic stretch in the offensive zone, notching points in four of his last five games (three goals, three assists) for the Jets. The winger continues to offer fantasy managers one of many productive offensive options as part of a high-octane Winnipeg lineup, posting a 1.00 point per game average (21 goals, 36 assists) in 57 games so far this season.

Cole Perfetti scored the game's opening goal in the first period, helping the Jets to a 4-1 win in Ottawa. He scored on his only shot attempt in 13:28 minutes.

Fantasy Impact: Perfetti has one goal and four assists in his last five games with six shot attempts. He has played in 59 games this season posting 12 goals and 25 assists (37 points) with a plus-17 rating.

Neal Pionk scored a second-period power-play goal during a 3-0 win versus Carolina. He had two shots, six hits, and three blocks in 24:10 minutes.

Fantasy Impact: This season in 55 games, he has eight goals and 28 assists (36 points) with a plus-15 rating. 11 of his 36 points have come on the power play. In his last three games, Pionk has one goal and three assists.

Vladislav Namestnikov scored a goal and had three assists during an 8-3 win versus San Jose. He finished the game with a plus-three rating in 13:29 minutes of ice time.

Fantasy Impact: Namestnikov's four points were his first of the season in four games. Last year, in 78 games with Winnipeg, he produced 11 goals and 26 assists with a plus-17 rating.

Mason Appleton scored a goal and added two assists during Winnipeg's 6-0 win in Edmonton on opening night. He played 16:11 minutes in the win registering three shots, two hits, and one block with a plus-three rating,.

Fantasy Impact: Appleton played in 82 games last season posting 14 goals and 22 assists (36 points) with a plus-16 rating. He's a third-line winger capable of a big goal occasionally, but not enough for fantasy roster consideration.

Pierre-Luc Dubois tallied one assist in the Jets' 3-1 loss to the Flames Wednesday night.

Fantasy Impact: Dubois has been solid of late in the offensive zone for the Jets, notching points in four of his last six games (two goals, three assists) for the club. The 24-year-old winger has been fairly productive for most of the season for fantasy owners, notching 61 points (26 goals, 35 assists) in 70 games so far this season.

Blake Wheeler notched two points for the Jets Friday night, scoring one goal and picking up one assist in a 6-2 win over the Red Wings.

Fantasy Impact: Wheeler has not been much of a factor in the offensive zone of late for the Jets, picking up points in just one of his last eight games (one goal, one assist) for the club. The veteran winger has offered fantasy owners a mostly reliable option for much of the season, recording 52 points (16 goals, 36 assists) in 67 games so far this season.

David Rittich allowed three goals on 23 shots faced in the Jets' 4-0 loss to the Islanders Sunday night.

Fantasy Impact: Rittich has allowed three goals or less in each of his last three starts (1-2-0) for the Jets, posting a .905 save percentage in that span. The 30-year-old netminder has been mostly reliable when called upon to spell No. 1 goaltender Connor Hellebuyck this season, carrying a 2.47 GAA and .911 save percentage in 17 appearances (9-6-0) in net so far this season.
