Perreault back in Jets' lineup, Patrick's game status with Flyers up in air

Mathieu Perreault returns to the Winnipeg Jets lineup tonight in a fourth-line role after being shelved by an injury for a dozen games.

The quick and skilled but diminutive forward took rushes with centre Matt Hendricks and right-winger Joel Armia this morning, in preparation for tonight's battle with the visiting Philadelphia Flyers.

Game time is 7 p.m.

After skating for more than a week, Perreault said he's anxious for some genuine NHL action.
