Winnipeg Jets defenceman Tobias Enstrom will have knee surgery on Thursday, according to coach Paul Maurice.
Enstrom, 31, scored twice and added 14 assists this season for the Jets (29-37-6).
Winnipeg recalled defenceman Julian Melchiori on an emergency basis in a corresponding move.
Melchiori played 16:30 against the Vancouver Canucks on March 14 — his only NHL game this season.
