Mathieu Perreault
Coach Maurice: On Wheeler/Hellebuyck getting selected for the All-Star game. Status of Lowry/Tanev. Why is Mathieu Perreault “easy” to play with? When is it like to the team when a guy like Perreault works so hard? On today’s practice. Getting a chance to watch Hawks/Wild face off. Looking at the video of the 3rd period in Buffalo. Did he have to say much about the 3rd to his players? Hellebuyck starts?
