Jets Get Back to Work

The Winnipeg Jets got back to business as they held their first practice after the Olympic break, minus their four Olympians.  Forwards Micheal Frolic of the Czech Republic, along with his teammate, goaltender Ondrej Pavelec, are on their way back to Winnipeg after their respective teams were defeated in the Olympic men's semi-final.  The USA's Blake Wheeler and Finland's Olli Jokinen will stay behind in Sochi, Russia just a little while longer, as their two teams will play for the bronze medal, as they were defeated by Canada and Sweden, who will battle for the gold medal on Sunday morning.

Here is some post-Olympic comments by the Coach Maurice and his players.
