Heinola has been ill all week and has sat out the last four games. He has one assist in eight games this season at the NHL level, while picking up 10 assists in 13 AHL contests. The 21-year-old needs lots of playing time and should get that in the AHL.

Jets' Ville Heinola: Remains sidelined versus Sabres
Rotowire
Heinola (illness) will not be ready to face Buffalo on Thursday, Scott Billeck of the Winnipeg Sun reports.
At this point, it seems doubtful that Heinola will be ready for the second game of the Jets' back-to-back versus the Penguins on Friday either, though he hasn't been officially ruled out. Even once cleared to play, Heinola may not be able to break into the lineup and could find himself watching from the press box as a healthy scratch.

Jets' Ville Heinola: Sent back to AHL affiliate
Rotowire
Heinola was reassigned to AHL Manitoba on Thursday.
This move is likely one to get Heinola playing time -- he had three assists in four games during a recent run of play, but he was a healthy scratch Wednesday versus the Red Wings. With Nate Schmidt clear of the COVID-19 protocols, Heinola was the odd man out. The 21-year-old could finish the year with the Moose unless injuries arise on the Jets' blue line.

Jets' Ville Heinola: Sent back to minors
Rotowire
Heinola was reassigned to AHL Manitoba on Wednesday.
Heinola will likely continue to jump between levels and could even be recalled before Friday's clash with Boston. Even if he is brought back up, the 21-year-old defenseman will be hard-pressed to crack the Jets' lineup and should therefore be considered a relative non-factor in fantasy contests.
