Paul Maurice being extra careful getting star defenceman back into lineup
Dustin Byfuglien has been participating in full workouts this week, but coach Paul Maurice wants to give him a little more recovery time. (Ruth Bonneville / Winnipeg Free Press)Two of the most dynamic defencemen in the game will be spectators tonight as the Winnipeg Jets take on the San Jose Sharks at Bell MTS Place.
Dustin Byfuglien will miss at least one more game as he recovers from an ankle injury suffered in late December. The Jets blue-liner was a full participant in the morning skate but stayed out for extra work.
Coach Paul Maurice said they are just being extra careful.
