Winnipeg Jets defenseman Toby Enstrom will be back in the lineup Tuesday after missing five games with a lower-body injury. Enstrom's return comes at a good time for the Jets, who will be without defenseman Jacob Trouba, serving the second game of a two-game suspension for an illegal check to the head of Ottawa Senators forward Mark Stone on Feb. 19. "Puck movement first, but that's not just in the neutral zone but in his own end, his ability to go back and get it under heavy pressure," coach Paul Maurice said of what Enstrom brings to the lineup. "And then just some of the real good defensive reads he makes. He moves the puck and starts transitions very well." The Jets are five points out of the second wild card into the Stanley Cup Playoffs from the Western Conference, trying to make the postseason for the second time since moving to Winnipeg in 2011. "There's obviously a desire to make the playoffs and the good news is we're not where we were last year, where it would take a miracle to get there," forward Blake Wheeler said. "We have an opportunity here. With that being said, it's going to be a tough road ahead of us and we've got to get started here [Tuesday]. We rebounded after that tough homestand and clawed our way back into it." The Jets were 3-0-2 on their five-game road trip before their five-day break. Goaltender Connor Hellebuyck will make his seventh straight start.
