DENVER — Winnipeg Jets coach Rick Bowness says defenceman Brenden Dillon is “day to day” after suffering a hand injury in Game 3 against the Colorado Avalanche.

Bowness says team doctors did a “fantastic job” of stitching him up, adding there was no significant damage.

Dillon appeared to suffer a deep cut to his left hand from a skate blade during a melee at the end of the Jets’ 6-2 loss Friday at Ball Arena.

Bowness did not have details on how many stitches were required.
