Joel Armia’s improved health allowed Winnipeg Jets head coach Paul Maurice to make one adjustment to his lineup Thursday.

The Jets right-winger, out since the final game of Round 1, returned to active duty and played fourth-line minutes with centre Andrew Copp and left-winger Matt Hendricks.

“It’s been tough to watch the games. You get so nervous watching the games, because you can’t do anything. I like what the team has been doing, playing great hockey, so it’s good,” Armia said, following Thursday’s morning skate at Bell MTS Place.
