COLUMBUS – The Winnipeg Jets will be without shutdown centre Adam Lowry as they kick off an important four-game eastern road trip Sunday night in Columbus.

Lowry, 25, has been suspended two games for a reckless high-stick of Nashville’s Filip Forsberg in Friday night’s 5-3 win at Bell MTS Place. He will miss the contest with the Blue Jackets and Tuesday’s tilt against league-leading Tampa Bay and is eligible to return Friday night in Carolina.

Lowry had just absorbed a hit from Forsberg when he swung his stick towards the Predators winger, hitting him in the face.
