Winnipeg traded Nogier to the Kings in exchange for Markus Phillips on Monday.
Nogier hasn't dressed in an NHL game since the 2018-19 campaign. He'll head to AHL Ontario and serve as some organizational blue line depth for the Kings.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Cleared of injury
Rotowire
Nogier (lower body) participated in practice Sunday and is seemingly over his injury, Ken Wiebe of Sportsnet reports. He was also placed on waivers Sunday, per Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.
Nogier suffered the injury Oct. 2 and was reportedly facing an absence of several weeks, but it sounds like he's good to go. Still, he only has 11 games of NHL experience (no points) and hasn't played at the top level since 2018-19, so he's not likely to make a fantasy impact anytime soon.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Facing extended absence
Rotowire
Nogier (lower body) is weeks away from returning to the lineup, according to coach Paul Maurice, Ken Wiebe of Sportsnet reports.
Nogier was going to have to impress during training camp to secure a spot on the 23-man roster for the season opener. With this extended injury absence, the Saskatchewan native figures to join AHL Manitoba once cleared to play but should be on the shortlist of potential call-ups.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Ascends to roster
Rotowire
Nogier was promoted to the Jets' playoff roster Wednesday, per CapFriendly.

Nogier was assigned to AHL Manitoba on Thursday.
Nogier hasn't cracked the Jets' lineup this campaign. It wouldn't be surprising to see him spend the rest of the regular season in the minors.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Called up Sunday
Rotowire
The Jets recalled Nogier from AHL Manitoba to the taxi squad Sunday.
The 24-year-old failed to make the team out of training camp, but Tucker Poolman (COVID-19 protocol) and Dylan DeMelo (personal) away from the team, Noiger will add some depth on the blueline. Nogier accumulated just one goal and nine points across 58 AHL games last season, so he's not expected to make an impact from a fantasy perspective at the NHL level.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Hits waiver wire
Rotowire
Nogier was placed on waivers by Winnipeg on Monday, Rick Ralph of TSN 1290 Winnipeg reports.
In 58 games for AHL Manitoba last year, Nogier tallied one goal and eight helpers but wasn't able to force his way onto the 23-man roster. Even if the blueliner is placed on the taxi squad, he figures to be a long shot for regular minutes with the club, making him a non-factor in fantasy contests.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Re-ups with club
Rotowire
Nogier put pen to paper on a two-year, two-way deal with Winnipeg on Wednesday.
Nogier has played in just one NHL game over the last two seasons, having previously logged 10 appearances back in 2016-17. The addition of Derek Forbort, combined with re-signing Dylan DeMelo and Luca Sbisa, will likely mean Nogier will once again spend the bulk of the year in the minors.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Earns qualifying offer
Rotowire
Nogier received a qualifying offer from the Jets on Sunday.
Nogier only played in the AHL during the 2019-20 season, recording nine points and 45 PIM over 58 games. The 24-year-old has some NHL experience, but he likely won't receive another offer from a different team. He'll have an uphill battle for an NHL roster spot next season.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: On the ice Thursday
Rotowire
Nogier (undisclosed) took the ice with his teammates Thursday, Mitchell Clinton of JetsTV reports.
Nogier had yet to practice with the team since the start of camp Monday and was on the ice with the early, non-lineup group. At best, the blueliner should consider himself ninth on the organizational depth chart, so fantasy players shouldn't expect to find him in the lineup any time soon.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Called up to big club
Rotowire
The Jets recalled Nogier from AHL Manitoba on Saturday.
The Jets have three defensemen on IR, and Dustin Byfuglien (suspension) is still away from the team. Nogier will add support to the bottom pairing. He's not an offensive juggernaut, generating just six points and a minus-12 rating over 42 AHL games.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Returned to AHL affiliate
Rotowire
The Jets reassigned Nogier to AHL Manitoba on Friday.
Nogier's demotion suggests Anthony Bitetto (lower body) will likely be ready to return Sunday against Edmonton. The 23-year-old will continue to be one of the first players the Jets turn to when dealing with injuries on the back end, but he won't have any fantasy value in 2019-20.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Recalled from AHL
Rotowire
The Jets added Nogier from AHL Manitoba on Thursday.
Nogier was briefly summoned from the AHL ranks earlier this month, but he did not take the ice in a game. He's credited with just 11 NHL appearances thus far and has yet to tally a point, landing Nogier firmly off the fantasy radar even if he draws into the lineup in the coming days.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Returned to AHL affiliate
Rotowire
The Jets reassigned Nogier to AHL Manitoba on Wednesday.
Nogier's demotion suggests that the Jets expect to have Josh Morrissey (upper body) or Dmitry Kulikov (personal) back for Thursday's game against Minnesota. The 23-year-old is expected to remain in the minors for most of the 2019-20 campaign, so he can be ignored in all fantasy formats.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Brought up to big club
Rotowire
The Jets recalled Nogier from AHL Manitoba on Tuesday.
Winnipeg will be without Dustin Byfuglien (personal), Dmitry Kulikov (personal) and Nathan Beaulieu (upper body) for Tuesday's matchup with Pittsburgh, so Nogier will round out the team's depth at defense against the Penguins. The 23-year-old notched nine points in 74 AHL appearances last season.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Heading down to minors
Rotowire
Nogier was placed on waivers Monday to be sent down to the minors, Ken Wiebe of The Athletic reports.
Nogier was in contention for a spot in the 23-man roster up to the end, but lost out to Ville Heinola, who figures to be in the lineup for Opening Night versus the Rangers on Thursday. With the departures of Tyler Myers and Jacob Trouba, the Jets are lacking blue line depth, so fantasy owners can likely expect Nogier to earn a call-up or two during the 2019-20 campaign.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Signs one-year pact
Rotowire
Nogier has penned a one-year, two-way contract with Winnipeg.
In 74 minor-league outings last season, Nogier notched one goal and eight assists. Not known for his offensive game, the 23-year-old is solid stay-at-home blueliner with size and stands a decent chance of breaking into the NHL full time at some point, though it's unlikely to happen in 2019-20 given the Jets' defensive depth.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Tendered qualifying offer
Rotowire
Nogier was given a qualifying offer by the Jets on Tuesday.
Nogier played in just one NHL game this season, in which he saw a mere 10:06 of ice time. In the minors, the blueliner tallied nine points in 74 appearances and could be in contention for a spot on the 23-man roster with a strong training camp showing this fall.

Jets' Nelson Nogier: Returned to AHL
Rotowire
Nogier was sent back to AHL Manitoba on Thursday, Paul Friesen of The Winnipeg Sun reports.
Nogier made his season debut Tuesday, notching a shot on goal and a blocked shot over 10:06 of ice time. The 22-year-old defenseman will likely be among the first in line to return to the top level should additional injuries surface. Nogier's demotion also likely indicates one or more of the Jets' injured defensemen will be available for Friday's contest against the Blues.
