The Winnipeg Jets have placed forward Bryan Little on injured reserve, while granting defenceman Dmitry Kulikov a personal leave from the team.
In a number of roster moves made Tuesday, the Jets also announced they have recalled Sami Niku and Nelson Nogier from the Manitoba Moose.
Little, 31, was diagnosed with a concussion last week after receiving a hit during a pre-season game against the Minnesota Wild.
Kulikov’s absence comes as the Jets are already dealing with a weakened blue line after defenceman Dustin Byfuglien was recently suspended by the team as he considers his hockey future.
