Winnipeg Jets optional skate audio

It wasn’t a full team on the ice today as the Jets held an optional.  In fact  former U of M Bisons goalie Joe Caligiuri stood in today.

Dustin ByfuglienPlaying low minutes.  Chatting with Claude on what is expected?  Knowing what he needs to do.  How exhausting has the schedule been?  How disruptive was it to go defence – forward – defence?  Still prefers to be a defenceman?  Any frustration not playing as much as he is accustomed to?  Drawing from past for next 8 games?  Any excitement with games that are do or die?  Importance of yesterday’s win?

Ron HainseyMomentum and meeting objective.  Talk about yesterday’s game.  The race for the playoffs, drawing from the past. Does he take anything from being close previously or is this situation unique?  Does he look ahead to next few weeks differently?  Any excitement with games that are do or die?  Does the team need practice or is rest highest priority?

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.
