Suiting up Sunday Gustafsson (lower body) will play Sunday against Pittsburgh, according to Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press.

Impact Gustafsson will make his season debut after missing the first four games. He will replace Rasmus Kupari in Sunday's lineup. The 24-year-old Gustafsson registered three goals, seven points, 27 shots on net, 23 blocked shots and 30 hits across 39 regular-season appearances in 2023-24.

Remains unavailable Friday Gustafsson (lower body) will not be an option versus the Sharks on Friday, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.

Impact Gustafsson has yet to get into the lineup for the Jets this season due to his lingering lower-body problem. The forward has been practicing with the team, so it's possible he's recovered from his injury concern but just hasn't earned a spot in the lineup yet. Still, Gustafsson should see some minutes sooner rather than later.

Not playing Sunday Gustafsson (lower body) won't be in the lineup Sunday versus Minnesota.

Impact Gustafsson will miss his third straight contest to begin the 2024-25 campaign. Winnipeg will be off until Friday against San Jose, giving him additional time to recover, but he could serve as a healthy scratch once he is available to return.

Still out Friday Gustafsson (lower body) won't play Friday versus the Blackhawks, Murat Ares of The Athletic reports.

Impact Gustafsson will miss a second straight game to begin the season after sustaining an injury late in the preseason. The Jets will roll out a lineup that's unchanged from their season-opening 6-0 win over the Oilers on Wednesday. Gustafsson's next chance to draw in is Sunday against the Wild.

Not suiting up Gustafsson (lower body) won't play Wednesday versus the Oilers, Murat Ares of The Athletic reports.

Impact Gustafsson is not a lock to play on a regular basis anyway, so it may be difficult to know when he's recovered from his injury. When the 24-year-old is able to play, he'll likely be limited to a fourth-line role. The Jets' fourth line will consist of Morgan Barron, Rasmus Kupari and Alex Iafallo in Wednesday's season opener in Edmonton.

Not playing Friday Gustafsson (lower body) is unavailable for Friday's tilt in Calgary, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.

Impact Gustafsson was injured at the midway mark of the second period Wednesday versus Calgary. The 24-year-old played in 39 regular-season games with the Jets in 2023-24, scoring three goals and adding four assists. Gustafsson is in a battle for a spot on the fourth line. His status for Opening Night in Edmonton on Oct. 9 is in doubt at this time.

Impact Gustafsson is in a position to earn a bottom-six role in the Opening Night lineup, but this injury puts that in jeopardy. Even if the injury isn't serious, the 24-year-old may be held out of Friday's preseason finale in Calgary.

OCTOBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Inks two-year deal Gustafsson signed a two-year. $1.67 million contract with the Jets on Saturday.

Impact Gustafsson had three goals and seven points in 39 regular-season appearances in 2023-24 for the Jets. The Swedish native also picked up three helpers in six AHL games with Manitoba. Gustafsson is expected to garner a spot on the bottom-two lines for the Jets next season.

JULY 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Opens scoring in loss Gustafsson scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche in Game 2.

Impact Gustafsson tallied at 3:15 of the first period. He's picked up two goals and two assists over his last five contests, but his chances of sustaining that kind of scoring pace are low as long as he's in a fourth-line role. The 24-year-old had a career-high seven points in 39 regular-season appearances.

APRIL 24, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Snaps lengthy drought Gustafsson scored a goal on three shots and levied four hits in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Stars.

Impact Gustafsson hadn't posted a point since Dec. 20, and his last goal was Oct. 30. He missed time in that span with a lower-body injury, but he's also struggled to crack the Jets' lineup consistently when healthy. The 24-year-old has three goals, two assists, 25 shots on net and 28 hits through 37 outings in a bottom-six role this season.

APRIL 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Back from conditioning Gustafsson was recalled from his conditioning loan with AHL Manitoba on Monday, per CapFriendly.

FEBRUARY 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Heads to AHL for conditioning Gustafsson was loaned to AHL Manitoba on Monday for conditioning purposes.

Impact Gustafsson will get some playing time in the minors after missing the past 18 games due to a lower-body injury. He has chipped in two goals and two assists in 27 NHL appearances this season.

FEBRUARY 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Set to be activated Gustafsson (lower body) is expected to be activated off injured reserve Monday, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.

Impact Gustafsson looks set to return following an 18-game stint on injured reserve due to his lower-body injury. The center remains stuck in a 21-game goal drought during which he managed just two helpers and 12 shots. Given his limited offensive upside, Gustafsson shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value.

FEBRUARY 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Returns to practice Friday Gustafsson (lower body) participated in a non-contact jersey at practice Friday, Scott Billeck of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

Impact Gustafsson was injured Dec. 22 versus Boston and placed on injured reserve the following day. He has only two goals, two assists and 19 shots on net in 27 games this season.

JANUARY 12, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Lands on IR Gustafsson (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Sunday.

Impact In a corresponding move, Jeffrey Viel was recalled from AHL Manitoba under emergency conditions. It's unclear at this time when Gustafsson will be available to return, but he won't play Sunday versus Minnesota. He has already missed the past two contests. Gustafsson has four points, 19 shots on net and 12 blocked shots across 27 outings this season.

DECEMBER 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play next two games Gustafsson (lower body) will not be an option against the Wild on Saturday or Sunday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.

Impact Gustafsson is currently stuck in a 21-game goal drought during which he managed just 12 shots and two assists while averaging 9:04 of ice time. Dominic Toninato figures to remain in the lineup while Gustafsson is on the shelf. At this point, Gustafsson figures to be a relative non-factor in fantasy contests even once cleared to play.

DECEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Not playing Wednesday Gustafsson (lower body) won't play Wednesday versus the Blackhawks, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.

Impact Gustafsson will miss his first contest with the injury, which had him labeled as a game-time decision earlier Wednesday. Dominic Toninato will replace Gustafsson in a fourth-line role for this game. Gustafsson's next chance to play is Saturday versus the Wild.

DECEMBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Game-time call Gustafsson (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision versus Chicago on Wednesday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.

Impact If Gustafsson is unable to go, Dominic Toninato will draw into the lineup against the Blackhawks. Gustafsson's picked up only four points through 27 contests this campaign, so fantasy managers shouldn't need to track his availability.

DECEMBER 27, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Chips in with assist Gustafsson notched an assist in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.

Impact Gustafsson helped out on a Morgan Barron equalizer in the third period. The helper was Gustafsson's first assist and third point of the season. The 23-year-old forward has been confined to a fourth-line role, adding 13 shots on net, nine blocked shots and a minus-1 rating through 21 appearances. His limited usage makes him a non-factor in virtually all fantasy formats.

DECEMBER 11, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Tickles twine to open scoring Gustafsson scored a goal in Tuesday's 4-2 home win against the Blues.

Impact Gustafsson opened the scoring at 2:55 of the second period, with helpers from Cole Perfetti and Dylan DeMelo, and the team quickly added another goal 18 seconds later. Gustafsson ended up with a plus-1 rating and three shots on goal, which wasn't bad for just 9:43 of ice time. Despite the goal, he remains a bottom-six forward, and his fantasy appeal is rather negligible.

Hoping to play Friday Gustafsson (upper body) is targeting a return to action against Edmonton on Friday, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.

Impact While Gustafsson won't be ready to face the Kings on Tuesday, his impending return to the lineup should bolster a Jets forward group that is dealing with several injuries, including Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) and Cole Perfetti (upper body). Even if cleared to play Friday, Gustafsson is unlikely to offer more than mid-range fantasy value while slotting into a bottom-six role.
