This is not what the Winnipeg Jets need. 

At all.

Defenseman Dustin Byfuglien skated off the ice and went to the dressing room during the second period of Wednesday's game against Ottawa with an apparent injury.

The Jets later announced Byfuglien suffered an upper-body injury and would not return.

Byfuglien has recorded 42 points in 64 games, with 118 penalty minutes and 196 shots on goal.
