Winnipeg Jets

Byfuglien scored at 1:23 of overtime to help the Jets continue their hunt for a playoff berth with a season-high fifth straight victory, 4-3 over the Carolina Hurricanes on Thursday night.

Byfuglien has two goals and two assists over his last four games.

Byfuglien had two assists in Winnipeg's 3-1 win over the New York Rangers on Thurdsay night.

The Jets defenseman has six of his 16 points over the past four games with one goal and five assists. He has four goals and 12 assists this season after registering 53 points in each of his first two campaigns with the franchise.

Byfuglien matched a career high with three assists Tuesday in a 5-2 win over Toronto.

Byfuglien had notched just four points over his previous 14 games, but hopefully Tuesday's effort is a sign of things to come.

Byfuglien returned to action, but had to leave Sunday's game due to an undisclosed lower-body injury

It's uncertain when Byfuglien will return.

Byfuglien had his first two assists of the season to help Winnipeg beat Washington 4-2 on Tuesday night.

It was the Jets' first win in three games. Byfuglien has a goal and two assists on the season.

Byfuglien has avoided a trial on drunken boating charges by pleading guilty to careless boating. Byfuglien reached a plea deal on Monday, the day his trial was to start in Minneapolis.

Byfuglien was charged last August with boating under the influence and refusing to take a chemical test after an incident on suburban Lake Minnetonka. Careless boating is a misdemeanor, and Byfuglien was sentenced to a year's probation, two days of public service, a $1,000 fine and a day in an alcohol education program.
