Winnipeg Jets forward Marko Dano is expected to miss eight weeks with a lower-body injury after sliding into the end boards in a 5-3 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday, coach Paul Maurice said Saturday. The Jets placed Dano, 22, on injured reserve on Friday. He has 10 points (three goals, seven assists) in 28 games this season. The Jets recalled forward Andrew Copp from Manitoba of the American Hockey League on Friday after sending him down on Thursday. Copp has seven points (four goals, three assists) in 25 games with Winnipeg this season. "He can do both (play center and wing)," Maurice said. "He has a defensive piece to his game ... and he can also play center if we need to, real strong on draws … he's not far off some pretty good players in terms of point production." The Jets have moved on after their 5-3 loss to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Thursday, forward Blake Wheeler said after Winnipeg failed to win its third straight game for the seventh time this season. "It seems so long ago, we're trying to focus on tonight," Wheeler said. "There were some parts of the game we really liked and some parts of the game we got away from. Maybe they had too much room to skate." Wheeler has seven points (three goals, four assists) in a six-game point streak. Forward Bryan Little needs three points for 400 in the NHL.
