Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff on Byfuglien contract extension and more

Topics:  Getting the deal done.  Did conversation heat up over weekend?  What does it mean for the franchise to get the deal done at five years?  From a personal standpoint getting a deal done.  Does he see Byfuglien’s game growing?  What does his signing do for the standing of the Jets organization around the league?  How important was it to take this issue off the table with the trade deadline approaching?  Talks with Ladd?  Can he make it work with Ladd?  Looking back at the Kane/Bogosian for Stafford/Myers almost one year later.  His thoughts on Kyle Connor leading the NCAA.  On Stafford’s suspension.

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.
