Winnipeg Jets captain Blake Wheeler talks about Dustin Byfuglien

Blake Wheeler and Dustin Byfuglien have been teammates since 2010-11 when the team was based in Atlanta.  With the talk recently about the Jets and Dustin Byfuglien’s camp seeking a mutual termination of contract the captain of the Jets spent about 10 minutes today in St. Louis discussing his teammate and fellow Minnesota product.

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.
