Nikolaj Ehlers to join Jets; will not be in Game 4 lineup
Bruce Fedyck / USA TODAY Sports
Nikolaj Ehlers will get a taste of the Stanley Cup playoffs - though it's not likely to occur on the ice.
The Winnipeg Jets will bring the ninth-overall selection of last year's draft across the country to discuss his future following the conclusion of his junior season with the Halifax Mooseheads.
He won't be in the Game 4 lineup, reports Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman, but if the Jets extend the series, further dialogue with the ultra-skilled forward might get a little more interesting.
Ehlers scored a staggering 205 points in 114 games across two seasons with Halifax.
