Hutchinson gets called up to Jets to backup Hellebuyck

CHICAGO – Michael Hutchinson will wear a Winnipeg Jets jersey once again.

The 27-year-old goalie was called up on an emergency basis and is backing up Connor Hellebuyck here Friday night against the Blackhawks.

Veteran goalie Steve Mason was "not feeling well," a club spokesman said, prompting the recall.

In another move, injured centre Adam Lowry (lower body) was placed on the injured reserve list retroactive to Jan. 5. He'll be sidelined until after Winnipeg's league-mandated five-day break, which begins immediately following the conclusion of Saturday's game in St. Paul against the Minnesota Wild.
