WINNIPEG, Manitoba -- If the Winnipeg Jets are going to extend their three-game winning streak when they host the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday night, they will need a little help from both the farm and the press box.

The Jets (3-2-0) placed winger Mathieu Perreault on injured reserve on Monday with a lower-body ailment after he blocked a shot Saturday in the team's 2-1 win over the Carolina Hurricanes. He is expected to be out at least four weeks.

Hot-shot prospect Kyle Connor was called up from the AHL Manitoba Moose, and he skated on a line with center Bryan Little and right winger Patrik Laine at practice Monday.
