Matt Hendricks News

The Jets have acquired Matt Hendricks from the Wild for a seventh-round pick.

Hendricks is a quality depth/fourth-line addition for the Jets, who he played 65 games with last season. Hendricks only played in five of the Jets’ 17 playoff games a year ago, so don’t expect him to be a big factor for them this time around.

Hendricks (undisclosed) is getting close to making his Jets debut.

Hendricks has missed the first six games of the season and is likely to miss No.7 on Friday. Hendricks may not be a full-time member of the Jets lineup, but with Mathieu Perreault and Adam Lowry both sidelined, there’s a spot for Hendicks to see some ice-time when he’s healthy.

The Oilers have activated Matt Hendricks (lower-body) from IR; he’s expected to make his season debut on Saturday.

Hendricks has missed the first 18 games of the season because of a preseason lower-body injury, but he’ll get into the lineup tonight in Dallas. He is merely a fourth liner, who carries limited to no fantasy value.

Hendricks will miss a few weeks with a lower-body injury.

Hendricks, 35, suffered a lower-body injury in the Oilers’ preseason game on Tuesday and will miss “weeks” according to head coach Todd McLellan. His injury might give a younger player like Anton Slepyshev and Tyler Pitlick a chance to make the club to start the regular season.
