Jets' Nikolaj Ehlers: Puts up assist in loss
Ehlers logged an assist, two shots on goal, four hits and a minus-2 rating in Tuesday's 6-3 loss to the Avalanche in Game 5.
Ehlers was limited to two assists, 14 shots on net, 11 hits and a minus-4 rating over five playoff appearances. It's a sharp decline from his 61-point regular season. Next year is a contract year for the winger, but it's still unclear where he might best fit in the Jets' lineup, as he often shuffled around between the first and third lines in 2023-24 while averaging 15:52 of ice time per game.

Jets' Nikolaj Ehlers: Manages helper
Ehlers produced an assist and two shots on goal in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Avalanche in Game 3.
Ehlers' helper was his first point in three playoff contests. The winger has added nine shots on net with a minus-2 rating so far this postseason. He saw just 12:57 of ice time Friday, which suggests he could be at risk of dropping in the lineup if the Jets continue to lag behind the Avalanche in the series.

Jets' Nikolaj Ehlers: One of each Tuesday
Ehlers scored a goal on five shots and added a power-play assist in Tuesday's 4-3 win over the Kraken.
Ehlers stretched the Jets' lead to 3-1 in the second period, and then set up Tyler Toffoli's tally in the third, which was the game-winner. This was Ehlers' third multi-point effort over the last six contests. The veteran winger has 25 goals, 61 points, 231 shots on net and a plus-27 rating through 81 outings overall. He's a little shy of his career high of 64 points from 2016-17, but it's not out of reach if he has a huge game Thursday versus the Canucks.

Jets' Nikolaj Ehlers: Nets 200th career goal
Ehlers scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Stars.
Ehlers earned his 200th career goal in his 602nd game. The winger has lost the steadiness he showed in March, picking up three points over five outings to begin April, but that's still plenty of production for a top-six winger. The 28-year-old is up to 24 goals, 57 points, 224 shots on net and a plus-26 rating over 79 appearances this season.

Jets' Nikolaj Ehlers: One of each Thursday
Ehlers scored a goal on three shots, provided a power-play assist, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Flames.
Ehlers put the Jets ahead 2-1 in the first period and added a helper on Tyler Toffoli's tally in the second that ended up being the game-winner. With four goals and seven assists over his last 11 contests, Ehlers is finally finding a groove in a top-six role. He's at 56 points -- his most in the last four years -- with 217 shots on net and a plus-27 rating over 76 appearances this season. He's still got enough time to secure his first 60-point campaign since 2017-18.

Jets' Nikolaj Ehlers: Supplies helper in win
Ehlers notched an assist and two shots on goal in Monday's 3-0 win over the Capitals.
Ehlers has nine points over his last 11 games, though just two of those points have been in the last five contests. The winger remains in a top-line role with 45 points through 64 outings overall. He's added 182 shots on net and a plus-21 rating. The addition of Tyler Toffoli at the trade deadline gives the Jets more options with their top six, but for now it looks like Toffoli will be on the second line and Ehlers will remain alongside Kyle Connor and Mark Scheifele.

Ehlers (undisclosed) missed Friday's practice and is regarded as a game-time decision for Saturday's contest against Carolina, per Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site.

Jets' Nikolaj Ehlers: Nets game-winner
Ehlers scored the game-winning goal Saturday in a 2-1 overtime victory over the Senators.
Ehlers deked Jakob Chychrun in the high slot and beat Joonas Korpisalo low blocker with a backhander. The winger has dealt with injuries over the last several seasons, but so far so good this year. With that consistent action, Ehlers has 16 goals and 34 points in 44 games, which puts him on pace to reach his career highs (29 goals, 64 points). Remarkably, only three of his points have come on the power play even though he toils on the top unit. New highs could come easily if he can find his way to a bit more output with the extra man.
