Jets' Gustav Nyquist left the game yesterday vs. the Blackhawks with an apparent injury, and Scott Arniel revealed afterward that he "tweaked" something.

Gabriel Vilardi may have been the one with two goals, but even he couldn't help raving about linemate Kyle Connor's highlight-reel finish that sealed a 6-3 Winnipeg Jets win over the Chicago Blackhawks on Thursday night.
With less than three minutes to go, Connor glided across the crease and appeared ready to circle behind the net before flipping a no-look backhand over goalie Spencer Knight that hit the crossbar and dropped in, a goal that had teammates shaking their heads in disbelief.
The top line for Winnipeg of Connor, Vilardi, and Mark Scheifele each recorded three-point performances. Vilardi scored twice and added an assist, while Scheifele and Connor both finished with a goal and two helpers.
After going goalless through his first seven games, Vilardi now has four in his past four as the 8-3-0 Jets continue their early-season surge.
Vladislav Namestnikov and Josh Morrissey added the other Jets goals, while Morrissey and Dylan DeMelo chipped in with multi-point nights. Connor Hellebuyck made 21 saves in the victory.
Teuvo Teravainen, Alex Vlasic, and Andre Burakovsky scored for Chicago, while Connor Bedard and Connor Murphy each added two assists. Knight made 26 saves in the defeat.
Scheifele now leads the Winnipeg Jets with nine goals and 17 points, while Connor and Vilardi are not far behind as the chemistry continues to develop among the trio. Morrissey called their line "unreal", a sentiment shared by the rest of the locker room.
Winnipeg scored early in each of the first two periods, including a Vladislav Namestnikov power-play goal just 1:42 into the contest.

Gustav Nyquist has apparently "tweaked" something, with no further updates at the moment besides that

It wasn't all fun and games, however, as Gustav Nyquist, who assisted on the play, left later with an apparent injury. According to head coach Scott Arniel, in his post-game interview, he said Nyquist "tweaked" something, which is definitely concerning.
The Jets continue to look like a confident, cohesive group, finding new ways to impress each night, and their top line is leading the charge.
Fans just hope that Nyquist won't miss too much time, as they hope to keep the good vibes rolling.
