Winnipeg Jets forward Mathieu Perreault will be a game-time decision Friday for Game 2 against the Minnesota Wild after leaving Wednesday's game with an upper-body injury, head coach Paul Maurice said, per Jets TV's Jamie Thomas.

Perreault played just 6:52 before departing.

If he can't go, Jack Roslovic or Matt Hendricks would be the most obvious candidates to replace him in the lineup. The 36-year-old Hendricks brings grit and experience, while the 21-year-old Roslovic - a former first-round pick - would add skill and offensive upside.

Perreault was a valuable source of secondary scoring for the Jets this season, with 17 goals and 39 points in 70 games while mostly playing in a third-line role.
