After the game head coach Rick Bowness was asked for an update and he had this to say:
“There’s a little bit of a lower body injury. He didn’t come back. He’ll be treated tomorrow. We’re hopeful that he’ll play Saturday.”

On a positive note he picked up two more assists in the win which gives him 36 assists in 36 games for Winnipeg.
