Winnipeg Jets forward Mathieu Perreault made his return to the lineup Friday night against the Vegas Golden Knights.

The 32-year-old missed the team's previous 16 games after exiting with an upper-body injury against the Boston Bruins on Jan. 31.

The veteran winger contributed six goals and 14 points in 46 contests this season - his sixth with the Jets - before being forced out of the lineup.
