The Winnipeg Jets lost 4-0 to the Pittsburgh Penguins on Friday night, but the greatest toll from the defeat wasn’t made public until Saturday with the Jets announcing forward Nikolaj Ehlers will be out for at least the next few weeks with an upper-body injury.

Ehlers suffered the injury in the first period, on the first shift of the game following a clean hit from Penguins captain Sidney Crosby.
