Byfuglien was on the ice for Saturday's practice, despite taking a stick to the face in the game against the Bruins a night earlier, Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun reports.

Analysis:

The incident happened late in the third period of Friday's game, so it put his status in some question before he alleviated those concerns by practicing. Byfuglien has been a force for the Jets since moving back to defense, and he turned in one of his better games Friday, skating for 27:04 and notching an assist en route to claiming first-star honors.
