Niederreiter's game is slowing, but he still has a scorer's hands and can be dangerous on the second power-play unit. Put him on your watch list in deep formats - he may be a helpful waiver grab if injuries strike.

Making trip with team Niederreiter (leg) will be with the Jets for their three-game road trip, John Lu of TSN reports Monday.

Impact Niederreiter presence on the trip doesn't guarantee that he will even skate according to coach Rick Bowness, so his status for Tuesday's matchup with Nashville should be considered doubtful at best. Prior to getting hurt, the 31-year-old winger was mired in a 13-game pointless streak, so his return to the lineup may not significantly impact fantasy players.

Niederreiter is up to 33 points, 144 shots on net, 87 hits, 32 PIM and a plus-14 rating through 62 outings. While the Jets added Tyler Toffoli at the trade deadline, Niederreiter's spot on the third line should be pretty secure -- Alex Iafallo and Mason Appleton are at higher risk of dropping in the lineup.

MARCH 3, 2024 • Associated Press

Lights lamp twice in Carolina Niederreiter scored two goals in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Hurricanes.

Impact Both tallies came in the third period, but so did the rest of the Jets' offense as they erased a 3-0 deficit with a stunning road comeback. It's Niederreiter's first multi-goal performance of 2024, with his last coming Dec. 30 against the Wild, and it was a rare flash of production from the 31-year-old winger -- he's made it onto the scoresheet only four times in the last 20 games. On the season, Niederreiter's compiled 16 goals and 30 points in 59 contests.

Impact Holding a 1-0 lead late in the first period, the Jets controlled the puck in Pittsburgh's end until Nate Schmidt directed a slap shot at the net that bounced off the boards right onto Niederreiter's stick. He used the puck luck to backhand the rebound past Tristan Jarry for his 13th of the year that ended up being the game winner for Winnipeg. Niederreiter has been cold as of late, not scoring in his five prior games and generating only two points in his past 11. The Sharks visit Winnipeg this Wednesday.

Records assist Sunday Niederreiter posted an assist, two shots on goal, three hits and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Coyotes.

Impact Niederreiter has helpers in consecutive games following a three-game slump. The winger set up Adam Lowry's goal in the final minute of regulation. Niederreiter remains officially on the third line with Lowry and Mason Appleton, but that trio often sees top-six minutes on the ice.

Impact It's the second two-goal performance in the last three games for Niederreiter, on the heels of a 12-game stretch in which the veteran winger managed only two goals and three points in total. His middle-six role and spot on the Jets' second power-play unit gives him some deep-league fantasy appeal, and through 34 contests he's posted 12 goals and 22 points, a pace which has him headed for his first 50-point campaign since 2018-19.

Big night on power play Niederreiter scored two power-play goals and added an even-strength assist in Friday's 5-1 win over the Bruins.

Impact It's the 31-year-old winger's first multi-goal performance since he potted a hat trick against the Coyotes on Nov. 4, a night which also accounted for his only other power-play tally of the season. Niederreiter is on pace to reach the 25-goal plateau for the second time in his career and deliver at least 50 points for the third time, but his third-line role for the Jets and inconsistent shifts on the man advantage make that level his ceiling.

DECEMBER 23, 2023 • Associated Press

Sparks comeback Niederreiter scored a goal and went plus-2 in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.

Impact Niederreiter has a goal and an assist over his last two games after going five contests without a point. He tallied just 43 seconds after Adam Henrique put the Ducks ahead 2-0 early in the third period. Niederreiter is up to seven goals and 16 points through 26 outings, mainly in a third-line role, but with Kyle Connor (lower body) leaving Sunday's game early, a spot on the top line could be open in the short term. Niederreiter, Cole Perfetti and Alex Iafallo seem like the likeliest options for a move to play alongside Mark Scheifele if necessary.
