Pre-game audio:

Coach Maurice:  On having Josh Morrissey back.  Who starts tonight?  Will he play the full game?  What does he look for in the first pre-season game?  Will he be curious to watch Ehlers/Little/Laine more than normal?  On Ehlers becoming a consistent NHLer.  On Morrissey’s development curve.  Does he think about how the Morrissey contract works for the team?  Does provide flexibility to add a player at deadline.  Does having Morrissey change approach with Tyler Myers?  On teaching the new guys the system.
