Game 19: Jets vs. Flyers pre-game report

Via Ken Wiebe of the Winnipeg Sun we get these as the Jets projected lines and D pairs:

Ehlers-Scheifele-Laine
Dano-Petan-Wheeler
Copp-Lowry-Tanev
Howden-Burmistrov-Thorburn.

Morrissey-Byfuglien
Enstrom-Trouba
Chiarot-Postma

Hellebuyck
Hutchinson

Note:  According to Ken – Drew Stafford was in a regular uniform but took shifts with Mark Stuart so clearly a little ways away.  Chase De Leo worked into the 4th line but is likely an extra.  Bryan Little came onto the ice towards the end of the skate in a non-contact jersey.

Player pre-game audio:

Blake Wheeler:  How do they keep the momentum going?  On Nic Petan’s learning curve and what he does well.  Using Philly’s poor 1st periods against them?

Coach pre-game audio:

Paul Maurice:  What has he liked about Nic Petan this season?  How have the Jets become a “damn good four line team”?  Not having to rely on one or two lines.  How can they take advantage of Philly’s poor starts to games?  What has he seen in the growth in Mark Scheifele’s game?  On Adam Lowry taking a step forward.  What does Drew Stafford need to do to get into a game?  On when we may see Stafford?  What has surprised him the most about Laine’s game?  Is this road trip a litmus test for the Jets?  Jets players having the right frame of mind.
