Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Available to return
Kupari (concussion) has been medically cleared to return to the lineup, per Murat Ates of The Athletic on Sunday.
Kupari participated fully in Sunday's practice and will need to get into more on-ice sessions with contact before being an option to play. He will likely be a healthy scratch against the Blues on Monday in Game 2. Kupari had five goals, eight points, 53 shots on net, 31 blocked shots and 77 hits in 59 outings during the 2024-25 regular season.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Unavailable Saturday
Kupari (concussion) will sit out the opening game of the playoffs against St. Louis on Saturday, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports.
Kupari suffered the injury against the Islanders on March 4 and tried to play March 25 against Washington following a nine-game absence but lasted only 5:44 before symptoms reappeared. He missed the final 10 games of the regular season, finishing with five goals and eight points in 59 appearances.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Not expected back Wednesday
Kupari (concussion) is slated to miss out versus the Ducks on Wednesday, Mike McIntyre of the Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Kupari has played in just one of the Jets' last 19 games due to his lingering concussion symptoms. Given his extended absence, the Finnish winger is far from a lock for the lineup even once cleared to play and could find himself serving as a healthy scratch in favor of Morgan Barron or David Gustafsson.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Remains unavailable
Kupari (concussion) won't play against Chicago on Saturday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports, and likely won't be an option for Sunday's matchup versus Edmonton.
Kupari accompanied the Jets on the team's two-game road trip, but his return to the lineup is not imminent. It's unclear if he'll play again before the end of the regular season. He has five goals, eight points, 53 shots on net and 77 hits across 59 appearances this season.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Unavailable for Thursday
Kupari (concussion) will travel with the Jets to Dallas, but he isn't expected to play against the Stars on Thursday, per Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press.
Kupari hasn't been in the lineup since March 25. He has five goals and eight points in 59 appearances in 2024-25. Kupari will likely serve in a bottom-six capacity once he's ready to return.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Still out Thursday
Kupari (concussion) won't play Thursday versus the Golden Knights, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.
It's safe to assume Kupari won't an option until the Jets return home, so don't expect to see him in the lineup Saturday versus Utah either. The 25-year-old is dealing with a recurrence of concussion symptoms, which makes it tough to pin down when he'll be able to play again.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Considered day-to-day
Head coach Scott Arniel said Friday that Kupari experienced "a bit of a setback" related to his previous concussion and is considered day-to-day, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.
Kupari dealt with a concussion in early March and had been a healthy scratch recently, but he returned to action Tuesday against Washington and recorded 5:44 of ice time in the win. However, he's apparently still hampered by his injury and will be unavailable for at least one more game. It's not yet known when he'll be medically cleared to return.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Cleared to return
Kupari (concussion) has received medial clearance to play but won't be in the lineup against the Rangers on Tuesday, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Morgan Barron will remain in the lineup to give him a longer look as the fourth-line center. Kupari has contributed five goals, eight points, 52 shots on net, 31 blocked shots and 77 hits across 58 appearances this season. He missed three games while going through concussion protocol.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: In concussion protocol
Kupari entered the NHL's concussion protocol following his injury against the Islanders on Tuesday, Mitchell Clinton of the Jets' official site reports.
Kupari shouldn't be expected to play during the rest of the Jets' road trip considering they play three games over the next four days. In his 58 appearances this season, the 24-year-old center recorded five goals, three assists and 52 shots in 58 outings. Without Kupari in the lineup, David Gustafsson figures to get back into action after being a healthy scratch the previous two games.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Exits Tuesday's contest
Kupari (undisclosed) left Tuesday's game versus the Islanders in the third period, and there was no update on his status following the contest, Ken Wiebe of The Winnipeg Free Press reports.
Kupari got tangled up with Hudson Fasching and went down awkwardly, which included his head hitting the boards. The Jets have not revealed the nature of Kupari's injury, but based on the hit, it could be a number of things. If he can't play Thursday in Philadelphia, David Gustafsson will likely rejoin the lineup.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Delivers assist in loss
Kupari notched an assist in Thursday's 2-1 loss to the Predators.
Kupari has two goals and an assist over his last nine games. The 24-year-old is firmly in a fourth-line role once again after seeing increased ice time due to the Jets' injuries at forward in January. Kupari has earned eight points, 49 shots on net, 76 hits, 31 blocked shots, 16 PIM and an even plus-minus rating across 56 appearances. His scoring production is too low to help in the vast majority of fantasy formats.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Finds back of net
Kupari scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 3-0 victory over Carolina.
Kupari has scored twice in his last four contests, and he's now matched his career-high mark of five goals set during the 2021-22 campaign when he was with the Kings. Despite the recent uptick in goals, the 24-year-old center has managed just seven points in 51 contests, making him a low-end fantasy option the rest of the way.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Finishes off Montreal
Kupari scored a goal on two shots, blocked three shot attempts and recorded two hits in Tuesday's 4-1 win over Montreal.
Kupari cruised in for an empty-net goal, sealing Winnipeg's fourth consecutive win. It's been a long time since the third-line center had that feeling; the goal snapped a 12-game drought. Kupari has just four goals and two assists through 48 outings.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Registers helper
Kupari notched an assist, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Canucks.
Kupari ended a five-game point drought when he helped out on Nino Niederreiter's second-period tally. The 24-year-old Kupari saw a season-high 14:25 of ice time Tuesday. He continues to play a larger role with the Jets' center depth tested by the absence of Vladislav Namestnikov (lower body). Kupari has done little on offense this season with five points, 35 shots on net, 50 hits, 14 PIM and an even plus-minus rating over 41 outings.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Scores in Tuesday's loss
Kupari scored a goal and added two hits in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Avalanche.
Kupari ended a 13-game point drought, a span in which he had just eight shots on net while also being scratched three times. He could get a run of playing time while Mason Appleton (lower body) is out on a week-to-week basis. Still, Kupari is unlikely to see anything more than fourth-line minutes. He has three goals, one assist, 34 shots on net, 36 hits and a minus-2 rating over 35 outings this season.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: At risk of losing playing time
Kupari was scratched for the last two games prior to the holiday break.
Kupari has held down the fourth-line center spot for most of the campaign, but David Gustafsson appears to be getting a chance to stake his claim to that spot. Gustafsson recently returned from a concussion. Kupari hasn't done much this year, racking up three points, 31 shots on net, 32 hits and a minus-3 rating over 32 appearances, so it's no surprise that his grip on an every-game role has started to slip.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Nabs helper in win
Kupari notched an assist and three hits in Monday's 4-1 win over the Wild.
Kupari picked up just his third point -- and first assist -- of the campaign. He scooped a Wild turnover and fed Alex Iafallo to tie the game midway through the first period. In addition to three points, Kupari has 25 shots on net, 18 hits and a minus-2 rating over 21 appearances in a fourth-line role. While he hasn't lit up the scoresheet, he's done enough to keep David Gustafsson in the press box for a vast majority of the campaign.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Finds twine Saturday
Kupari scored a goal in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Stars.
The goal was Kupari's first scoring contribution since his tally Opening Night versus the Oilers. The 24-year-old has played regularly in a fourth-line role, but he's had trouble getting involved in the offense while averaging 10:04 of ice time per game. The Finn has two goals, 19 shots on net, 10 hits and a minus-3 rating across 14 appearances, and he could eventually lose his place in the lineup to David Gustafsson.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Nets goal in opener
Kupari scored a goal on two shots in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Oilers.
At least in the goal column, 2024-25 is already going better for Kupari than last year did. He was limited to a single assist and 28 shots on net over 28 appearances in 2023-24, but the 24-year-old center cashed in for a second-period goal in Wednesday's season opener to match last year's point total. Kupari is set to fill the fourth-line center spot at least until David Gustafsson (lower body) is cleared to return.

Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Returns from assignment
Kupari was recalled from his conditioning assignment with AHL Manitoba on Friday.
Kupari suited up for the Moose in Wednesday's 4-0 defeat to AHL Belleville, registering two shots and a minus-2 rating. With his legs seemingly back under him and his shoulder injury behind him, Kupari could challenge for a spot in the Jets' lineup, especially with Mark Scheifele suffering a lower-body injury against Chicago on Thursday.
