• Jets' Nikolaj Ehlers: Puts up assist in loss

  05/01/2024 • By RotoWire

  Ehlers logged an assist, two shots on goal, four hits and a minus-2 rating in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Avalanche in Game 5. Ehlers was limited to two assists, 14 shots on net, 11 hits and a minus-4 rating over five playoff appearances. It's a sharp decline from his 61-point regular season. Next year is a contract year for the winger, but it's still unclear where he might best fit in the Jets' lineup, as he often shuffled around between the first and third lines in 2023-24 while averaging 15:52 of ice time per game.

  04/27/2024 • By RotoWire

  Ehlers produced an assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Avalanche in Game 3. Ehlers' helper was his first point in three playoff contests. The winger has added nine shots on net with a minus-2 rating so far this postseason. He saw just 12:57 of ice time Friday, which suggests he could be at risk of dropping in the lineup if the Jets continue to lag behind the Avalanche in the series.

  Ehlers scored a goal on five shots and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Kraken. Ehlers stretched the Jets' lead to 3-1 in the second period, and then set up Tyler Toffoli's tally in the third, which was the game-winner. This was Ehlers' third multi-point effort over the last six contests. The veteran winger has 25 goals, 61 points, 231 shots on net and a plus-27 rating through 81 outings overall. He's a little shy of his career high of 64 points from 2016-17, but it's not out of reach if he has a huge game Thursday versus the Canucks.

  Ehlers scored a goal on three shots, provided a power-play assist, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Flames. Ehlers put the Jets ahead 2-1 in the first period and added a helper on Tyler Toffoli's tally in the second that ended up being the game-winner. With four goals and seven assists over his last 11 contests, Ehlers is finally finding a groove in a top-six role. He's at 56 points -- his most in the last four years -- with 217 shots on net and a plus-27 rating over 76 appearances this season. He's still got enough time to secure his first 60-point campaign since 2017-18.
