Coach Maurice: Status of Chiarot. Roster move? What is he expecting from his team and from the Hawks? How does Ben Chiarot change the look of the 3rd pairing? On the culture of the room and where Mark Scheifele fits. Is there such a thing as “too much thinking” or “too much hockey” when it comes to Scheifele? On Scheifele’s evolution. What are the biggest challenges to him as a coach when you game plan against Toews? On Enstrom partnering with Byfuglien. What will he be looking at from Connor Hellebuyck to know he is comfortable? Can he imagine this Jets team without Bryan Little? Would he like to have Little long term? Can Laine’s low key personality help him get past mistakes?
