About the Jets

Played Thursday night in Minnesota without D Zach Bogosian and it sounds like he is doubtful for tonight with an upper-body injury…Jets had lost four of six entering Thursday night’s road contest, their last until March 8….Winnipeg opens an eight-game homestand at the MTS Centre tonight and in serious catch-up mode in the Eastern Conference…In the 10 games prior to Thursday, Winnipeg had scored two or less goals eight times…D Dustin Byfuglien, now eight games returned since a knee injury, has played some big minutes lately, more than 28 minutes on Tuesday and four of the seven games before Thursday above his season’s average of nearly 24 minutes… Jets are 0-9 on the second night of back-to-back games this season.

 

About the Bruins
