Two key players for the Winnipeg Jets returned to practice today.
There looks to be some good news on the horizon for the Winnipeg Jets. D/RW Dustin Byfuglien and D Tyler Myers both returned to practice today.
A welcome sight! Byfuglien and Myers both practicing today. 👍 https://t.co/AAonzpuJ4I

With the Jets having a game tomorrow night against the San José Sharks, it seems likely that these two will end up playing.
Byfuglien has been out since March 4, with an upper body injury. It was suspected that he would miss 2-4 weeks, so the former Blackhawks skater is returning a day before the minimum mark.
Myers missed Saturday’s game against the Lightning with an upper body injury as well. However, with him practicing today, it does not seem serious. He should be good to go for tomorrow.
