Skinner will guard the road net against Chicago on Saturday, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.
Skinner has stopped 90 of the 102 shots he has faced during his four-game winning streak. He has a 7-4-3 record, a 3.24 GAA and an .886 save percentage in 14 appearances this campaign. Chicago (5-13-1) ranks last in the league this season with only 2.21 goals per game.
Rosen (undisclosed) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Blackhawks, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Rosen didn't practice Friday due to an undisclosed injury, and he'll be unavailable for at least one matchup. Nino Niederreiter will take his place in the lineup against Chicago, while Rosen's next opportunity to suit up will be Tuesday against Ottawa, though it isn't yet clear whether he'll be able to do so.

Jets' Isak Rosen: Misses practice Friday
Rotowire
Rosen was not on the ice Friday due to an undisclosed injury, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Rosen is currently stuck in an eight-game pointless streak and has scored just once in 19 appearances this year. With the 23-year-old winger questionable to play versus Chicago on Saturday, Nino Niederreiter would be expected to step into the lineup should Rosen miss out.

Jets' Dylan DeMelo: Placed on injured reserve
Rotowire
DeMelo (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Friday.
DeMelo was deemed week-to-week after exiting Thursday's game against the Stars due to his lower-body injury, so it isn't particularly surprising to see him land on injured reserve. Haydn Fleury is a candidate to return to the lineup in DeMelo's absence, while Henry Thrun was called up from AHL Manitoba to provide additional depth.

Jets' Henry Thrun: Promoted from minors
Rotowire
Thrun was called up from AHL Manitoba on Friday.
Thrun likely will watch from the press box as a healthy scratch against the Blackhawks on Saturday unless he can edge out Tyrel Bauer for a spot on the blue line. In a corresponding move, Dylan DeMelo (lower body) was placed on injured reserve, so Thrun could be up in the NHL for a little while.

Jets' Josh Morrissey: Nabs helper Thursday
Rotowire
Morrissey logged an assist, two shots on goal, four blocked shots, two PIM and a plus-4 rating in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Stars.
This was Morrissey's second game back after he missed 14 due to a wrist injury. The 31-year-old has immediately retaken a prominent role on the top pairing and first power-play unit. He has four helpers, 18 shots, seven blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over six appearances this season and should be firmly in all fantasy lineups.

Jets' Cole Perfetti: Notches pair of helpers
Rotowire
Perfetti registered two assists and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Stars.
Perfetti rattled off his third straight multi-point effort. He has a goal and six helpers during a four-game point streak, which has come from a second-line spot alongside Brayden Yager and Dawson Mercer. Perfetti started the year on the top line, leading to a hot start that has him at seven goals and 11 helpers through 20 outings. He still plays with the Jets' best players on the first power-play unit as well, where he's earned eight of his points. Perfetti's success in a variety of situations gives the Jets some flexibility in assembling their lines, though changes won't be coming with the team on a five-game winning streak.

Jets' Cole Koepke: Scores in blowout win
Rotowire
Koepke scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Stars.
Koepke remains firmly in a fourth-line role, but he has three points and 17 hits over his last five contests. The 28-year-old is up to three goals, one assist, 15 shots, 40 hits and a minus-4 rating across 16 appearances this season. Koepke doesn't need to be rostered in standard fantasy formats, but he could be a depth option in banger leagues.

Jets' Dylan Samberg: Earns pair of points
Rotowire
Samberg scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist and went plus-4 in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Stars.
Samberg had to take on some extra heavy minutes after Dylan DeMelo (lower body) left the game in the first period. The 27-year-old Samberg will likely be more involved on the penalty kill moving forward since DeMelo is out week-to-week. Over his last eight games, Samberg has earned three goals and two assists. He's up to three goals, five helpers, 22 shots on net, 31 blocked shots, 23 hits and a plus-4 rating over 20 appearances. Samberg has never had more than 20 points in a season, but he's on pace to shatter that mark in 2026-27.

Jets' Gabriel Vilardi: Racks up three points in win
Rotowire
Vilardi scored a goal on four shots, added two assists (one on the power play) and went plus-3 in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Stars.
Vilardi's offense has been coming to life since he was moved to the top line Nov. 3 versus the Canadiens. He's produced a goal and five helpers over five contests since that switch was made. It's not a surprise -- Vilardi excelled alongside Mark Scheifele and Kyle Connor last year as well. Vilardi is up to two goals, 10 assists, 39 shots on net and a minus-3 rating through 20 appearances this season. He's worth checking on in fantasy as a pure offense option, as some managers may have cast him loose amid his slow start.

Jets' Kyle Connor: Delivers three-point effort
Rotowire
Connor scored a goal on four shots and added two assists (one on the power play) in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Stars.
Connor has four multi-point efforts over his last five games. The 29-year-old has seemingly benefited from the Jets putting Gabriel Vilardi back on the top line at the start of November. Connor is up to 16 goals, eight assists, nine power-play points, 85 shots and an even plus-minus rating through 20 contests this season. He should be able to keep up his current pace overall, though his goal scoring could take a small step down as the season progresses.

Jets' Dawson Mercer: Starting to fit in with new team
Rotowire
Mercer scored twice on four shots and blocked two shots in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Stars.
This was Mercer's third multi-point effort over his last four games. The 25-year-old forward has clicked well on a line with Cole Perfetti and Brayden Yager in recent contests, giving the Jets a second quality scoring line. Mercer has five goals, seven assists, 41 shots on net, 14 hits, 14 blocked shots and a minus-2 rating over 20 outings between the Jets and Devils this season.

Jets' Mark Scheifele: Ties Winnipeg points record
Rotowire
Scheifele scored twice, including once on the power play, and added an assist in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Stars.
Scheifele has four goals and six assists during his five-game point streak. With the NHL merging the two iterations of the Jets' franchise history together back in September, Scheifele has now pulled even with Dale Hawerchuk for points in franchise history at 929. Scheifele also sits one goal back from tying Hawerchuk's goal record of 379. That's to say that there will be some milestones falling soon as the 33-year-old Scheifele cements himself in Winnipeg history. He's produced six goals, 16 assists, eight power-play points, 43 shots on net and a plus-4 rating over 20 appearances this season.

Jets' Stuart Skinner: Gets plenty of help in win
Rotowire
Skinner stopped 30 of 33 shots in Thursday's 8-3 win over the Stars.
This was Skinner's fourth straight win, though he's allowed at least three goals in five of his last six outings. The 28-year-old netminder has run streaky this year, so it's unclear how long he'll be able to maintain his recent success. He's at a 7-4-3 record with a 3.24 GAA and an .886 save percentage across 14 starts this season. The Jets wrap up their quick two-game road trip with a matinee game in Chicago on Saturday.

Jets' Dylan DeMelo: Labeled week-to-week
Rotowire
DeMelo (lower body) is considered week-to-week after leaving Thursday's game versus the Stars, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.
DeMelo's absence will likely lead to Haydn Fleury getting back into the lineup for the Jets. Expect DeMelo to miss at least two or three games due to the injury.
DeMelo (lower body) won't finish Thursday's game versus the Stars.
DeMelo sustained an injury in the first period and won't be able to continue. Both teams have lost a blueliner to injury, as Dallas' Lian Bichsel (lower body) also exited the game. DeMelo can be considered day-to-day ahead of Saturday's contest in Chicago.

Jets' Stuart Skinner: In line to face Stars
Rotowire
Skinner is slated to draw the road start in Thursday's clash against the Stars, per Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site.
Skinner is currently riding a three-game win streak ahead of Thursday's clash, as he was able to fend off the Lightning in his last outing. Overall, the 28-year-old netminder has a 6-4-3 record, a 3.26 GAA and an .883 save percentage over 13 appearances this season. Despite the Jets rostering three goalies, Skinner has commanded the bulk of opportunities in net, playing in eight of the team's last 11 games. He's a solid No. 2 goalie option in fantasy for the time being, including Thursday's contest against the Stars.
