WINNIPEG – The Winnipeg Jets will be without rookie forward Andrew Copp for the foreseeable future.
Copp has been placed on the team’s injured reserve with an upper-body injury he suffered in Saturday’s 3-2 win over the Columbus Blue Jackets. Copp scored his first career NHL goal in the same game.

Winnipeg plays the first of back-to-back games Tuesday night when the team faces the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Jets wrap up the four-game road trip Thursday night by visiting the Ottawa Senators.
