So far, Jets' brass has been happy with the play and conditioning of Dustin Byfuglien: "With the short season, I think he knows we’re reliant on him. I think he recognized the urgency of wins. He also recognizes the impact he can have on games. When I say how reliant we are on him, I’m talking about his teammates on him and the accountability factor has matured. He’s got a big role in the leadership part of things and I think he has a great will to win. We’re seeing some of those things." [WFP]

All-in-all, Claude Noel was pleased with his team's opening road trip: "Happy comes with winning. I woke up this morning and I thought, god, it’s nice to win. It’s a sunny day. You look forward to getting to the rink even though you’re tired. When you don’t win you want to stay in bed, lie in the fetal position for a couple of hours." [Winnipeg Sun]
