A week ago today hockey insider Darren Dreger tweeted about Jets suspended defenceman Dustin Byfuglien indicated that he “has reached the point in rehab from surgery where he needs to test the ankle on ice”. He added in that same tweet that the big man from Minnesota hadn’t done that yet.

Today, Dreger joined Hustler and Rick on The Afternoon Ride on TSN 1290 Winnipeg and part of the conversation involved questions about Byfuglien.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
