It used to be 3,220 kilometres between practices.
This week, it was no more than a Dustin Byfuglien point shot, about 60 feet.
The Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose were under the same roof this week at practice for the first time since the start of the NHL and AHL seasons, skating both Tuesday and Wednesday at the MTS Iceplex.
It’s the new hockey order in Winnipeg after True North Sports & Entertainment brought the Moose back from St. John’s, N.L. The AHL team, originally the Moose, went there in 2011 to make room for the relocated Atlanta Thrashers.
