The Jets were nearing full health as guys were shedding their non-contact jerseys and returning to the lineup. The latest pair to do so were Haydn Fleury and Mason Appleton who will be activated off injured reserve by Winnipeg and play this evening against Colorado.

Considering Lowry was deemed week-to-week by head coach Scott Arniel on Wednesday, it shouldn't come as a surprise to see him landing on injured reserve. Additionally, the extra roster spot will allow the Jets to activate Mason Appleton (lower body) off IR ahead of Wednesday's clash with Colorado.

Adam Lowry exited Monday's game against Utah HC with an injury and will be out tonight against the Colorado Avalanche.

Winnipeg Jets center Adam Lowry (lower body) is considered week-to-week. Jets head coach Scott Arniel announced the news on Wednesday after Lowry was injured in Monday's game against Utah. The 31-year-old will miss his first game of the season on Wednesday against Colorado.

Lowry’s injury comes just as the Jets were on the cusp of being fully healthy, with defenceman Haydn Fleury also returning to the lineup on Wednedsay night for the first time since Dec. 23 and joining Appleton in making his return.

Adam Lowry is Winnipeg's de facto No. 2 centre, making his extended absence a troubling item for the top team in the West.

Vladislav Namestnikov and Mason Appleton returned to the Winnipeg Jets' optional practice today since suffering their injuries.

The Jets (31-14-3) are in Colorado (28-19-1) on Wednesday night. The two teams last knocked heads during the recent eight-game homestand, with Connor Hellebuyck earning his league-leading sixth shutout, as the Jets won 3-0 on Jan. 11.

The opponent for the Jets this evening are an Avs team which are none too pleased with the 3-1 loss they suffered to the Wild on Monday. They’ve hit a bit of a rough patch going 5-4-1 in their last ten games.

Once February hits, second-line centre chatter is as inevitable as frostbite in this city. But Adam Lowry has shown he very well may be capable of handling that role effectively this season.

Barron scored a goal in Wednesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Avalanche.

Neal Pionk scored the winner just 17 seconds into the extra frame as the Jets captured the season series against the team that knocked them out of the playoffs last year.
