Winnipeg Jets forward Nikolaj Ehlers will be out until February with an upper-body injury, coach Paul Maurice confirmed Saturday.

Ehlers left Friday’s game against the Pittsburgh Penguins when he collided with Sidney Crosby and appeared to hurt his left shoulder.

The 22-year-old has 15 goals and 12 assists in 39 games this season.
