Game 41: Jets 4 Panthers 1 post-game report

Stats:

Post-game audio:

Patrik Laine:  What did he think of the Jets performance?  On Bryan Little setting him up.  What does it mean to have 21 goals in 41 games?  Does he feel he is half way through his first season?  On his comfort level in the NHL at this point.  Thoughts on Nikolaj Ehlers heating up.

Bryan Little:  Reflecting on the Jets being able to secure four points last two games.  What does it mean for Hellebuyck to post back-to-back wins?  Was he tempted to shoot instead of passing to Laine?  What has it been like to see the production of Laine?  Common denominator to their last two wins?  Getting to .500.

Mark Scheifele:  Any talk about the Jets 2nd periods and suddenly playing better in them?  On getting to .500.  What stands out from these past two games?  What does it mean for Hellebuyck to post back-to-back wins?  On Hellebuyck being judged unfairly.  What’s it like to see Laine with 21 goals at mid way point in the season?  On Nikolaj Ehlers heating up.

Connor Hellebuyck:  How satisfying was getting the back to back wins?  Yesterday was a redemption day, what was today?  When did he know he would be playing today?  On the Panthers shooting a lot on him.  Working on rebound control.  His thoughts on Roberto Luongo.

Coach Maurice:  Common denominator to their last two wins?  What did he think of Hellebuyck’s performance?  Having two 1st lines going.  Importance of “answering back”.  On what it means when the entire team is playing the “right way”.  Difference in the power play.  Adam Lowry leading the team in forward ice time.  What stands out from the first 41 games?

I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
