The Winnipeg Jets placed forward Cole Perfetti on their injured reserve list Tuesday.
The 21-year-old suffered an upper-body injury in Sunday’s 4-2 loss at New Jersey before sitting out for Monday’s 4-1 victory over the New York Rangers.
The 10th overall pick at the 2020 NHL draft has eight goals and 30 points in 51 games with the Jets this season.
Perfetti added six goals and 15 points in 17 appearances with the American Hockey League’s Manitoba Moose last season.
