The Winnipeg Jets have placed forwards Patrik Laine and Nate Thompson on injured reserve.

The second overall pick in the 2016 draft, Laine had two goals and an assist in the Jets' season-opening game before being sidelined.
Thompson suffered a lower-body injury on Thursday in a win over the Ottawa Senators. He has been held pointless through four games.
Winnipeg has added defenceman Dylan DeMelo to the active roster.
The Jets complete a three-game series against Ottawa on Saturday night in Winnipeg.
