Connor Hellebuyck - Falls to Kings Hellebuyck stopped 30 of 33 shots in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Kings. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

Impact Hellebuyck had a fine effort, but the same can't be said for the team in front of him -- they mustered just 14 shots on net against David Rittich. This loss ended a three-game winning streak for Hellebuyck, who dropped to 15-3-0 on the year. He's added a 2.11 GAA and a .928 save percentage through 18 starts, and this setback shouldn't take the shine off his overall performance. The Jets have a couple more tough matchups on this road trip, as they visit the Golden Knights on Friday and the Stars on Sunday.

Winnipeg visits Los Angeles after Iafallo's 2-goal game

The Winnipeg Jets visit the Los Angeles Kings after Alex Iafallo scored two goals in the Jets' 4-1 win against the Minnesota Wild

NOVEMBER 26 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Rasmus Kupari - Nabs helper in win Kupari notched an assist and three hits in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

Impact Kupari picked up just his third point -- and first assist -- of the campaign. He scooped a Wild turnover and fed Alex Iafallo to tie the game midway through the first period. In addition to three points, Kupari has 25 shots on net, 18 hits and a minus-2 rating over 21 appearances in a fourth-line role. While he hasn't lit up the scoresheet, he's done enough to keep David Gustafsson in the press box for a vast majority of the campaign.

NOVEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Vladislav Namestnikov - Shakes off injury scare Namestnikov had an assist in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

Impact Namestnikov missed a good chunk of the first period after appearing to get hurt on the first shift. He was able to take a regular shift for the rest of the contest, but finished with a team-low 11:45 of ice time. There doesn't appear to be any reason for concern at this time, but if he has to miss a game, David Gustafsson would draw into the lineup. Namestnikov has contributed 14 points, 25 shots on net, 25 hits, 18 PIM, 14 blocked shots and a plus-12 rating over 22 outings this season, playing primarily on the second line and second power-play unit.

NOVEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Cole Perfetti - Puts up helper in win Perfetti managed an assist in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

Impact Perfetti is coming out of a slumberous stretch on offense -- he's been held without a goal in 10 straight games, but he's now picked up an assist in two of the last three contests. The 22-year-old hasn't lost his spot on the second line during the slump, but his ice time remains fairly limited compared to other members of the Jets' top six. Perfetti is at four goals, 11 assists, 39 shots on net and a plus-11 rating over 22 outings in 2024-25.

NOVEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Kyle Connor - Sets up empty-netter Connor had an assist and three shots on goal in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

Impact Connor has five points and 13 shots on net over his last four games. The winger set up Adam Lowry's empty-netter to ice this win as the Jets bounced back from losing to Nashville on Saturday. Connor has been excellent in a top-line role in 2024-25, earning 13 goals, 14 helpers, 79 shots and a plus-9 rating over 22 appearances, making him a must-start in the vast majority of fantasy formats.

NOVEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Mark Scheifele - Draws assist Monday Scheifele logged an assist, three shots on goal, three hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

Impact Scheifele didn't take a faceoff Monday -- he's likely dealing with something that he can play through, but it's prevented him from being heavily involved at the dot over the last three games. The center is still contributing in other ways, and as long as he's scoring, fantasy managers won't have much to complain about. The 31-year-old has five points over his last four contests, and he's up to 12 goals, 14 assists, 50 shots on net, 23 hits, 20 blocked shots, 21 PIM and a plus-4 rating through 22 outings overall.

NOVEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Neal Pionk - Adds two assists in win Pionk registered two assists, including one on the power play, fired three shots on goal and added two hits in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

Impact Pionk put an end to a five-game point drought when he set up Nino Niederreiter's go-ahead tally in the second period. In the third, Pionk also had the primary helper on an Alex Iafallo tally. After a hot October, Pionk's consistency has dropped in November, though he's still registered seven helpers over 12 outings this month. The defenseman has a total of 19 points (six on the power play), 41 shots on net, 36 hits, 35 blocked shots, 16 PIM and a plus-12 rating across 22 appearances in his usual roles on the second pairing and second power-play unit.

NOVEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Adam Lowry - Fills empty cage Lowry scored an empty-net goal on four shots in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

Impact Lowry has three goals and an assist over the last six contests. His four shots Monday were a season high. The 31-year-old center is up to five tallies, 15 points, 30 shots, 37 hits, 18 blocked shots and a plus-16 rating through 22 appearances. While primarily functioning as a shutdown center, the Jets' offense has run deep enough for Lowry to set a career-best scoring pace just over a quarter of the way through the campaign.

NOVEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Nino Niederreiter - On modest three-game point streak Niederreiter scored a goal in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

Impact Niederreiter has two goals and an assist during his three-game point streak, and his tally Monday was his first game-winner of the campaign. The winger had gone six contests without a point prior to warming up over the last few games. He's now at nine tallies, 15 points, 46 shots on net, 45 hits and a plus-12 rating over 22 appearances in a third-line role.

NOVEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Alex Iafallo - Scores twice in win Iafallo scored two goals, including one on the power play, and blocked two shots in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.

Impact The Jets' top six wasn't in peak form Monday, but Iafallo made up for it, snapping his personal six-game slump in the process. His first tally tied the game at 1-1, and he added a power-play marker in the third period to make it 3-1 in Winnipeg's favor. The 30-year-old winger is up to eight points (six on the power play), 23 shots on net, 16 blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 22 appearances. He's on pace to get back over the 30-point mark after missing it for just the second time in seven seasons in 2023-24 with 27 points over 82 regular-season outings.
