Just as Jets get Bogosian back, Kane goes out
WINNIPEG -- Zach Bogosian and Evander Kane passed like ships in the night for the Winnipeg Jets on Saturday.

The Jets welcomed Bogosian back to their blue line after he missed five games with a lower-body injury. However, the Jets lost the services of Kane, who missed Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the visiting Florida Panthers with a concussion.

Kane's timetable remains unknown, and he will join defenseman Dustin Byfuglien and center Tim Stapleton as injured Jets. Byfuglien has not played since Dec. 23, and Winnipeg has lost 216 man-games to injury so far this season.

But coach Claude Noel wasted little time easing Bogosian back into the line-up. The 21-year-old logged a team-high 25:19 of ice time, including more than six minutes on the power play, and set a new career high with nine shots against the Panthers.

"I felt good," Bogosian said. "I got thrown right in the mix there, but, you know, it's good just to get the momentum going. You know, whenever you play a lot, you get into kind of a groove, and everything felt good out there."

While the Jets squandered an opportunity to apply further pressure in the Eastern Conference standings on the tired Panthers and Washington Capitals, Bogosian viewed the outcome with a half-full perspective.

"I think that anytime you battle back [from 2-0 and 3-2 deficits], it's kind of more of a point gained," Bogosian said. "We did show that we can battle back and we didn't give up right until the end."
