Jets centre David Gustafsson has played 38 games this season but has been on IR since January 10th. Sixteen days after he last played head coach Rick Bowness indicated that Gustafsson was dealing with an “upper-body injury. He will need another few days off. He had an MRI yesterday. And he just needs probably another three or four days off.”. Almost seven weeks later he is finally ready to return.
